For Profit Organizations Adjusting to New Realities. Fifteenth Annual Status Report on For Profit Child Care.
Neugebauer, Roger
Child Care Information Exchange, n143 p32-33,35 Jan-Feb 2002
Until August 2001, demand for child care services was strong, with the for-profit sector registering modest growth. However, the deepening recession and terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 contributed to changing priorities for child care providers. Rising unemployment has lessened demand for services, and anxieties resulting from the terrorist attacks have parents, employers, and providers focused on safety issues. (TJQ)
