Subsidized Child Care Attrition Study

In order to maintain eligibility for child care subsidies, families are required to re-certify at least annually. However, in Hillsborough County, Florida, there has been an unprecedented increase in the number of families not completing the re-certification process, resulting in an under-utilization of state and federal funds allocated for child care subsidies. Using telephone surveys, this study investigates the reasons why families have not re-certified for subsidize childcare funding in Hillsborough County. The results of this study will be used to develop strategies to decrease rates of attrition from subsidized childcare in the county.
