Every Child Belongs: Welcoming a Child with a Disability

When you open your classroom door this new school year, you'll be welcoming preschoolers with a variety of experiences, strengths, and challenges. For some children, this will be their first time in a classroom, and they may struggle to follow routines and grasp concepts. Others will arrive having a lot of experience with books and language, and some may be dual language learners. A few children in your new class might have disabilities or developmental delays that impact their learning, social skills, or behavior. You may be wondering, How do I support children with disabilities or developmental delays when I don't have any training to do that? All children learn best in a developmentally appropriate program that offers them the supports the need to participate successfully alongside their classmates.

Child Care Market Price Study
The Early Learning Division and the Department of Human Services receive federal funding from the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) to help low income parent pay for child care. Every three years the state is required to survey the child care market by collecting information on the prices providers charge parents. This information is analyzed and used to help determine the rates paid by the Department of Human Services for child care subsidies. Data collection for the study begins September 1 and conducted by 211info Child Care.
Attached is the letter that will go out to all licensed child care facilities next week. If you have questions on the Market Price Study data collection, please contact 211info Child Care.
