State-by-state estimates for $10 Billion in Child Care COVID Relief Funding
This week’s COVID relief package contains $10 billion in direct funding for child care relief—a much-needed down payment for a field on the verge of collapse. Alycia Hardy and Katherine Gallagher Robbins estimate how much [[link removed]] each state, D.C, and Puerto Rico would receive from the $10 billion investment, and Christine Johnson-Staub addresses [[link removed]] how states can use the funding to increase equity and maximize support for families and early educators.
While an important step, this funding falls far short of the $50 billion the child care sector needs to survive COVID, which has devastated the sector. Without significant additional support, it will be difficult for parents to return to work, children will be left without critical supports for their health and well-being, and the millions of women who work in child care—disproportionately women of color—would lose their livelihoods.
