520 |a This advocacy report documents the shortfall in state funding for child care and pre-K in 2016. In 2015-16, outside New York City, only 1,259 full-day pre-K spots--a gain of only 1%. There are still 89,587 four-year olds waiting for full-day pre-K outside New York City. In low-income communities outside of New York City, a whopping 63% of four-year-olds have no seat in full-day pre-K. New York City provides full day pre-K to 68,547, an increase of 50,000 over the past two years, through the "Pre-K for All" program. A disturbing 78% of children eligible for subsidized child care are being denied the subsidized child care for which they qualify. Local communities around the state are simply running out of child care funding and refusing to even take applications from working families. This report recommends: (1) An additional $150 million to expand access to quality pre-K focused on high-need three- and four-year-olds; and (2) An additional $190 million for child care services to support the costs of meeting new federal standards and protect services for tens of thousands of children. [The Ready for College, Ready for Kindergarten Campaign is led by the Alliance for Quality Education, Citizen Action of New York, the Public Policy and Education Fund and the Center for Children's Initiatives. Support for the policy analysis and research for the Ready for College, Ready for Kindergarten Campaign was provided by the Child Care and Early Education Fund.]
