the FORUM for EARLY CHILDHOOD ORGANIZATION and LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

Funding Trends, Issues and Opportunities

Funding issues in early childhood education and care have taken on new significance as changes in federal, state and local policies and practices have created greater demand for quality childhood education and care facilities, staffing, curricula and services.  The remarks presented here reflect the ideas, views and opinions of speakers attending a recent seminar - they do not necessarily represent the views, ideas and opinions of The Forum for Early Childhood Organization and Leadership Development, Midwest Center for Nonprofit Leadership, L.P. Cookingham Institute of Public Affairs, Henry W. Bloch School of Business and Public Administration, or the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
