| Abstract | This report examines what factors, besides funding and eligibility, affect whether eligible low-income parents who know they can get a child care subsidy actually use one. Data come from subsidy agency administrators, child care experts and caseworkers, parents, and providers at 17 sites in 12 states in 1999 as part of a case study project. This report examines subsidy policies and practices that may affect the utilization patterns of eligible parents who want to apply for, or who already receive, subsidies. Results indicate that there are many subsidy policies and practices that make it difficult for low income eligible parents to access and retain the child care assistance they need in order to work. Eight chapters examine: (1) "How Parents Experience the Subsidy System: Overarching Administrative and Structural Factors"; (2) "Initial Access to the Child Care Subsidy System"; (3) "Retaining Assistance during the Recertification Process"; (4) "Retaining Child Care Assistance after Leaving Welfare"; (5) "Retaining Assistance through Changes in Employment Circumstances"; (6) "Retaining Subsidies during Changes in Child Care Providers"; (7) "The End of the Process: Termination from the Subsidy Program"; and (8) "Conclusions." Study data are appended. (Contains 33 references.) (SM) |
