ALLOCATING PUBLIC REVENUES EDUCATION • Coordination between school and after–school programming is a challenge because there is no defined time period for staff to meet. Staff development opportunities can be difficult to arrange due to scheduling conflicts. • The funding formula is based on attendance, rather than enrollment, which has made it difficult for some school districts to participate. OTHER SITES WITH SIMILAR STRATEGIES California's approach involves a large commitment of state Department of Education dollars and an emphasis on both after–school learning and delinquency prevention.

HIGHER EDUCATION CAMPUS–BASED CHILD CARE (NEW YORK) DESCRIPTION New York State’s higher education fund and federal funds from the Child Care and Development Fund support campus child care centers at the State University of New York (SUNY) and the City University of New York (CUNY). WHEN ESTABLISHED State higher education funds were first allocated to SUNY campuses in FY1984–85. The following year, funding for SUNY community colleges was added. Federal child care funds for SUNY and CUNY campuses began in FY1992–93. ANNUAL AMOUNT In FY1999–2000, child care centers on CUNY’s campuses received a total of $3.4 million in state higher education funds and $1.27 million in federal Child Care and Development funds. In FY1999–2000, child care centers on SUNY’s campuses received a total of $3.91 million in state higher education funds and $1.27 million in federal Child Care and Development funds. SERVICES FUNDED Funds support the cost of establishment, renovation, expansion, improvement or operation of child care centers at public two—and four—year colleges in New York. CUNY sponsors 18 child care centers that serve approximately 2,000 children. SUNY sponsors 52 centers that serve approximately 4,500 children each year. HOW FUNDS DISTRIBUTED Campus–based centers apply for, and receive, grants from the State University of New York System Administration. There is an annual Request For Proposal process, during which the child care centers submit enrollment, budget and program information. Funds are distributed based on the number of student children served. POPULATION SERVED The initiative targets student parents. While faculty, staff and community members may enroll children in the SUNY centers, funding is intended to keep the services affordable for students. Federal Child Care and Development Fund dollars are used to pay child care fees for student parents with family incomes at or below 200 percent of the State Income Standard (similar to the federal poverty level). STRATEGIC CONSIDERATIONS • These programs offer vital support for many low–income students who are not eligible for New York State child care subsidies. Child care subsidies are typically limited to employed low–income families. • The program requires centers to generate a 35 percent match, which often come from student activity fees or parent fees. In New York City a portion of the match is provided by city tax levy funds. • When the funds were first allocated, the primary focus was on one–time, start–up or expansion to increase the availability of campus–based child care. As the number of centers increased, additional expansion/ start–up was not encouraged. However, in FY1999–2000 new funds were allocated to campus–based child care, and campuses were encouraged to expand their child care programs or to start new ones. • Proponents of campus–based child care argue that targeted investments in campus–based child care pay for themselves in additional tax dollars that are generated by individuals who were able to obtain a college degree, earn higher wages and remain a stable part of the work force. OTHER SITES WITH SIMILAR STRATEGIES Seven additional states (California, Florida, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Ohio and South Carolina) make funds available to support campus–based child care. These funds are typically allocated as part of the higher education budget. Some states allocate a portion of their federal Child Care and Development Fund dollars to campus–based child care.
