USA: NATIONWIDE CHILD CARE SURVEY SHOWS LACK OF OPTIONS IMPACT ECONOMY
Washington, DC, Feb. 20, 2004 - Today, YMCA of the USA, the national resource office for this country's 2,540 YMCAs and collectively the nation's largest child care provider, released a child care survey at a briefing on Capitol Hill. The study of voters (both parent and non-parent) funded by Colonel's Kids and the Entertainment Industry Foundation shows that communities do not have enough quality, affordable child care programs and many voters believe the economy is negatively impacted because there are not enough child care options for working parents. The lack of quality, affordable child care increases absenteeism and creates on-the-job distractions of employees that lessen productivity and affect both parent and non-parents. As the U.S. Senate prepares to debate the welfare reform bill, YMCA of the USA believes this survey underscores the urgent need to increase child care funding and create more quality, affordable options for child care in communities nationwide.
