Edward Zigler has been intimately involved in this issue since the 1970's, and here he presents a firsthand history of the policy making and politics surrounding this important debate. Good-quality child care supports cognitive, social, and emotional development, school readiness, and academic achievement. This book examines the history of child care policy since 1969, including the inside story of America's one great attempt to create a comprehensive system of child care, its failure, and the lack of subsequent progress. Identifying specific issues that persist today, Zigler and his coauthors conclude with an agenda designed to lead us successfully toward quality care for America's children. 606 $aChildren$xServices for$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aChild welfare$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 615 0$aChildren$xServices for$xGovernment policy 615 0$aChild welfare$xGovernment policy 676 $a362.70973 700 $aZigler$b Edward$f1930-2019.$01262614 701 $aMarsland$b Katherine W$01635231 701 $aLord$b Heather$01635232 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910827387603321 996 $aThe tragedy of child care in America$93975903 997 $aUNINA
