Financing Strategies to Support a Coherent Early Care and Education System in Hawaii (July 2003)

This report provides guidance for designing and financing a coherent system that ensures access to high-quality early care and education services for all of Hawaii's young children.

The author suggests a framework for such a system and features an array of strategies to support it. Specific financing mechanisms and strategies used elsewhere in the nation are explored and discussed in the context of their potential application in Hawaii. Hawaii Community Foundation commissioned this report from early childhood policy consultant Teresa Vast and provided it to Good Beginnings Alliance for use in its various policy initiatives and related efforts.
