PRENATAL-TO-FIVE FISCAL STRATEGIES

UPCOMING WEBINAR

Using Cost Estimation To Inform Child Care Policy - February 15, 3pm ET

Join us on February 15  to learn about cost estimation modeling and how it can be used to inform child care policy. The webinar is a companion to our recently released report on the same topic. 

Vision

A prenatal to five system that meets the needs of every child and family and is supported by sufficient and stable funding streams that provide maximum flexibility for families, efficient administration and infrastructure, and minimum burden for program providers.

REVENUE AND EXPENSE MODELING

Revenue and expense modeling, also known as cost modeling, can help states and communities understand the true cost of providing services for young children and families. P5FS supports states and communities through the development of models for child care, PreK, home visiting and parent education, and system supports.

ALTERNATIVE METHODOLOGY FOR SUBSIDY RATE SETTING

Setting subsidy reimbursement rates based on the actual cost of providing care, rather than market rates, can promote equitable access to child care for all children. P5FS supports states to conduct cost studies and develop cost estimation models that can inform subsidy rate setting in line with federal requirements.

COMPREHENSIVE FISCAL ANALYSIS

Conducting a comprehensive fiscal analysis can help states and communities achieve their vision for a comprehensive prenatal to five system. A comprehensive analysis combines fiscal, governance, and equity analyses, which can then inform recommendations for making progress towards the vision for the system.
