A recent @ChildTrends brief explains the importance of comprehensive data in creating equitable pre-K systems; the goals of the forthcoming ECDC Pre-K Data Equity Framework; and the challenges and needs of six focal populations. childtrends.org/publications/p…
We are pleased to share that @SilvanaMontana_ has joined @ChildTrends as a sr. research analyst in the early childhood area! She is interested in ensuring that the youngest & most vulnerable populations gain equitable education, health, & social outcomes. buff.ly/3cEQL7m
What's data got to do with it? We can't inform #earlychildhood policy without it. In a new @ChildTrends brief, @ecedata Director @kingcarlise discusses how data integration can help answer key questions about early childhood program access for all. childtrends.org/publications/i…
According to ECDC's new infographic, when using integrated data to help families gain equitable access to early childhood programs, policymakers should work with communities to ensure privacy protection and to guide data integration, access, and use. buff.ly/3P7F3k1
In a new @ChildTrends brief, ECDC director @kingcarlise argues that early childhood integrated data systems (ECIDS) are a crucial part of creating more equitable systems and outcomes for young children and families. #Data4EquityEarly buff.ly/3RdrIIy
Emergency and existing federal funds provide states the opportunity to improve their P–20W data systems. Doing so is essential for empowering policymakers to meet new and longstanding challenges in education and the workforce. Learn more at our webinar: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regist…
Formalized cross-agency data governance is crucial for effective P–20W data systems. By prioritizing data governance early, California leaders ensured that agencies can come together to create a data culture built on trust + collaboration—not silos. bit.ly/3Ov6y6X
Leaders in education, health, and social services all have important roles to play to ensure individuals succeed. They need linked data to coordinate their efforts to support individuals in the classroom and beyond. bit.ly/2BWeH3C
In @NewAmerica's new blog, @eregenstein explains the benefits of cloud technology in developing state-level Early Childhood Integrated Data Systems. He also identifies practical steps for implementation. buff.ly/3y0vkEO
"Improving and expanding early childhood services can have a major long-term effect on child and family outcomes, and better information is a key support for that improvement and expansion." @eregenstein for @NewAmerica buff.ly/3y0vkEO
#FridayFact- #COVID19 impacted the world in many ways. However, studying its impact on young children is difficult. The @aisp network and I2D2 Director Rouse authored a paper proposing a conceptual model to guide research on this population.tinyurl.com/3db8c7f2 #integrateddata

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month!
Latino children have a substantial and growing presence in several Midwestern states: Roughly 180,000 Latino children live in Michigan and Indiana, and just over 160,000 Latino children live in Ohio, an @NRCHispanic data point indicates. buff.ly/3EiznyG #HispanicHeritage
@ecedata @HomeGrownOrg @PreschoolToday Thank you so much for sharing!
It's even less affordable for single parents, who often spend 50% of their income(or more!)on #childcare. It severely limits what single families can afford, incl. rent, food, diapers & more. All children deserve high-quality, affordable child care when their parents are working.
The price of child care has increased by 25% in the last decade, with the average annual price of care in 2018 at roughly $10,000. This means that on average, two income families spend 15% of their income on child care. buff.ly/3eBxL7R via @firstfiveyears
Loooooooove this. (though not how incredibly costly it all is for families!)
A new tool from @CAPEarlyEd can help parents, advocates, and policymakers across all 50 states, several territories, and D.C. assess the true cost of center- and home-based child care and how different program characteristics impact cost. buff.ly/2TnyO40
Early childhood care and education is a necessity, not a luxury, for many working families
According to a @BPC_Bipartisan and @MorningConsult survey, 71% of parents say if free #preK were available to their family during the typical school day, they would choose to send their child. buff.ly/3x6woFv
"FCC providers may seek out employment in other fields where there are opportunities for higher compensation and benefits, less stress, and fewer hassles related to direct interactions with system"

I didn’t expect this to get so much attention😃Now that you're here, if you want to learn more about how to make a difference in kids’ lives, check out my work for @ecedata that shows how we use data to improve programs for young children and families! childtrends.org/research-topic…
We live in a data-driven decision making world. Using ARPA funds to improve data systems in a way that centers equity to better locate and serve children, families, and providers is critical! As is engaging communities in expanding/improving those data systems.
.@CLASP_DC. recommends that states use ARPA funds to improve data systems to increase equity and better locate children, families, and child care providers in the state and understand their needs.
#Nebraska ranks #1 in USA for unaffordable #childcare. COVID19 has severely impacted child care infrastructure across the country, severely impacting NE providers, parents, & kids. A new brief details more about how child care has been affected nationwide. We💚data!

"We need to treat it like a public good & stop having parents shoulder the cost burden”- Caitlin McLean @CSCCEUCB ow.ly/LKdz50DJgyM Must read @ByEmilyTate
@EstherEGross is reminding us to put data in context, because otherwise people can fill in the blanks with negative stereotypes. #everychildeverystate @ecedata
Via @ecedata: Despite efforts to address multiple dimensions of ECE access, current research rarely takes into account both systems- and family-level factors when defining and measuring access. buff.ly/351Z9Ys via@OPRE_ACF
Promoting and protecting early literacy!
State leaders can enhance children's transition into kindergarten by including transition activities — such as detailed community-wide plans and review and use of data — in monitoring protocols used by the state department of education. buff.ly/3oefhxA
Using data to make critical decisions - seems like a good start.
Data about #childcare supply and demand are critical for a well-coordinated emergency response. Child care provider surveys can help states understand and develop responses to pandemic-related challenges, such as the financial instability of ECE programs. buff.ly/31Ns6EL
Just like we do in DC.
To improve Head Start quality, @NatlHeadStart recommends states expand data partnerships to support collaboration with state early childhood systems. buff.ly/349RdUy
