Funding for Diversity in Early Education Programs

We have discussed funding sources for early education programs, early childhood comprehensive systems, and recent federally funded initiatives. Now, let's focus on HOW early childhood programs should be funded.

For your initial post, address the following:

• How should early childhood programs be funded (for example, parent tuition, employer-sponsored, federally funded, state-funded)?
• Are there other sources that could fund programs?
• What way do you think is best for everyone involved (families, teachers, community)? Why?

Use any references you need to support your ideas, and cite your sources appropriately.
