Differential Day Care Placement Project. Final Narrative Report.
Arkansas State Dept. of Education, Little Rock. Div. of Federal Programs.
This report presents the findings of surveys conducted in Arkansas to diagnose children's day care needs as directed by parents in the community. Representative samples of approximately 100 parents of preschool children in each of three communities (Fort Smith, Hot Springs, and Texarkana) were interviewed as to the kinds of child care arrangements they were using, their reactions to these arrangements, and their preferences for types of arrangements when given a choice. Overall, the surveys show that parents are concerned about child care but must take what is available. Survey requirements, sample survey forms, and instructions given to volunteer interviewers are included along with data from each community. (ED)
