Description: This research focused on enhancing the understanding of the context in which kith and kin caregivers provide child care and to stimulate discussion about approaches for improving the quality of care that these caregivers offer. The study focused on how states define home-based care that is exempt from regulations for family child care, the kinds of requirements that states impose on license-exempt home-based caregivers who provide care for subsidized children, and the types of special initiatives, if any, that states fund to improve the quality of care that these caregivers offer to children.
