| Abstract | This booklet is designed to guide parents in finding appropriate child care for their children. It is divided in two main sections. The first part describes two Adult and Family Services (AFS) child care funding programs in the state of Oregon: (1) Aid to Dependent Children (ADC); and (2) Employment-Related Day Care (ERDC). Both programs cover expenses related to child care and inspect the appropriateness of the proposed child care provider for qualifying families. Under ADC, child care expenses are paid at a level needed for a parent to keep his or her job. ERDC covers a portion of child care expenses; in addition, a limited number of student-parents can qualify for AFS child care funding needed to continue school. This part of the report also describes the application process for approval in the programs, and provides a list of AFS child care rates. The second part of the booklet provides tips for finding good and steady child care, noting that careful and organized examination of potential child care providers forms the basis for making the right choice. Child care centers, family child care homes, group homes, preschool and Head Start, and before- and after-school care are some of the options offered. The standards they should meet, in areas including health and safety, quality of environment, and provider experience and cooperation, are also described. The report concludes with information on relevant Oregon State agencies, as well as a list of Child Care Resource and Referral services, listed by county. (AA) |
