| Abstract | Child care services differ in terms of types of arrangements, providers, programs, delivery systems, and children served. This diversity is needed to provide black children with as many opportunities as possible for a good start in life and to avoid limiting them to the one publicly funded child care center in a neighborhood. California's system of child care services provides an example of diversity; the state subsidizes 15 different program types, ranging from child care for migrant workers (located on farm sites) to child care and parent training for teen mothers (located on the high school campus) to alternative payment programs where parents choose the care they want and the state pays the cost. Linking these programs together for the consumer is a network of state funded Child Care Information and Referral Services which provides, free of charge to any parent who calls, information and a referral to the child care arrangement which meets their needs. Despite problems, California is one state in which diversity has been successfully implemented. Some generic outcomes of the California model have great benefit to child care consumers and providers, but possible negative consequences of increasing the variety of publicly funded programs can be seen. However, despite caveats about developing diverse models of child care, without diversity the future in child care will be bleak. (RH) |
