Trending in Child Care Licensing Regulations and Policies 2011

Good afternoon,

This research brief is a joint effort between the Office of Child care’s National Center on Child Care Quality Improvement and the National Association for Regulatory Administration.

“The purpose of this research brief is to report on two aspects of child care licensing for all 50 States and the District of Columbia:  state child care center licensing regulations and child care center licensing policies.  Using data compiled from state child care licensing regulations and the results of a survey of state licensing agencies, the National Center on Child Care Quality Improvement has conducted an analysis that examines the state of licensing in 2011, and identifies trends that have become apparent during several years of data collection.”

This is a great resource on trends in health and safety implementation in state licensing.

Best regards,

Jeanne
