This webinar series explores tools, tips, strategies, and resources for programs to deliver high-quality virtual programs. The first webinar is called Transforming from Virtual Bleh to Virtual Yeah! It offers a wealth of concrete tips to provide structured and consistent programming, increase student engagement, and battle virtual burnout, plus a review of online tools.
This issue brief provides background information about the structures of child care costs and revenues and shows how the pandemic has affected the financial picture of providers. The paper also describes implementation issues for allocating financial resources to stabilize child care programs and the workforce. This resource supports the COVID-19 response.
This webinar provides information about how two states are supporting Family, Friend, and Neighbor care (FFN), which has become an especially important part of the child care supply in COVID-19. New Mexico has created a path for temporary FFN care that lasts for 6 months. Providers can serve up to 4 non-residential children and can access subsidy and food programs.
This policy brief summarizes findings from 22 focus groups with family child care (FCC) providers in CA, FL, MA, and WI during spring 2020. It reviews challenges that FCC providers faced as they provided care during the pandemic and the strengths they have that make them uniquely suited to respond to child care needs.
This toolkit includes resources that will help build child care supply. It includes six steps: (1) assess and plan; (2) identify resources; (3) generate awareness; (4) develop strategies; (5) implement your plan; and (6) evaluate and implement. The concepts build on recognized strategic planning principles and include stories of success. This resource supports the COVID-19 response.
This issue brief provides a framework that states can use during the COVID-19 crisis to create child care policies that promote equitable access and mitigate the chance that child care closures will be concentrated in low-income and middle-income neighborhoods and rural areas.
This issue brief shares findings from the Rapid Assessment of Pandemic Impact on Development, finding that parents of young children with disabilities are experiencing higher rates of stress, anxiety, and depression as a result of loss of services in a virtual environment.

This webinar brings together panelists representing Afterschool Alliance, Child Care Aware of America, National Association of Family Child Care, and Urban Institute to share what needs to happen in out-of-school time as schools reopen during COVID-19.
This webinar shares results of a survey from August 2020, finding that many parents are struggling to locate quality, affordable child care amid closures and capacity restrictions. While the survey was of parents with children birth-5, there are also findings for school-age children. For example, 38% of school-age parents will look for a child care provider if their school is not open in fall.
