Child Care and Early Education Policy and Research Analysis Project (CCEEPRA)

Description:

The purpose of the CCEEPRA project is to perform research activities that will address high-priority early care and education issues and questions while also building the capacity for new research and evaluation efforts. Child Trends' work on CCEEPRA will provide OPRE with timely, high-quality research products to inform early care and education policies and programs serving low-income, at risk children and families. The work will be developed in collaboration with national research and policy experts to ensure that OPRE has access to the most current research findings and innovative methodologies in the field, and to provide a venue for jointly identifying gaps and opportunities in the early care and education research and policy agenda.
