Early Care and Education in Minnesota Asset Review: Summary and Recommendations
Chase, Richard
Wilder Research
This summary describes the current status of Minnesota's early childhood care and education system. It is based on a review of several dozen plans and reports produced since 2000, and group discussions and interviews around the state with about 175 early childhood stakeholders. It also provides recommendations for how to improve upon assets and implement new approaches and assumptions that move early childhood care and education beyond "business as usual."
