The Center for Advanced Studies in Child Welfare (CASCW) and the Center for Early Education and Development (CEED) recently published an extensive report — Early Care and Education Participation for Young Children in Foster Care: Family and Staff Perspectives. This report, commissioned by the Minnesota Department of Human Services, seeks to better understand barriers and facilitators to early care and education (ECE) participation for young children in foster care in Minnesota.
This is the second of two reports produced as part of this study. The first report, “Early Care and Education Participation for Young Children in Foster Care: Administrative and Contextual Insights,” is included in this final report as an addendum.
