Description:

The Child Care Policy Research Consortium is a national alliance of research projects sponsored by the Child Care Bureau in the Administration for Children and Families, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The Consortium's purpose is to help the Child Care Bureau increase the national capacity for sound child care research, identify and respond to critical issues, and link child care research with policy and practice.

The annual Child Care Policy Research Consortium Meeting was held on March 8-11, 2005, in Baltimore, MD. Materials from the conference, including summaries of sessions, PowerPoint presentations, posters and handouts are now available on the Child Care and Early Education Research Connections website.
