Description: The TANF and CalWORKs welfare reform initiatives included significant changes in the work support systems for parents on public aid. In California this led to both a restructuring of the child-care subsidy system, as well as new investments in child-care capacity building efforts. Prompted by changes in the child-care system and welfare reform, the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) asked PACE researchers to look at how new welfare-to-work and child-care capacity building were affecting supply and demand in the child-care system. This paper provides an overview of findings.
