Dive into a comprehensive analysis of child care access in the District of Columbia with The Bainum Family Foundation's latest report, “Assessing Child Care Access: Measuring Supply, Demand, Quality, and Shortages in the District of Columbia.” The Bainum Family Foundation commissioned the report, with research and analysis conducted by Reinvestment Fund.

It provides a detailed look at the evolving early childhood education landscape in D.C. over the past five years since our original report was released in 2018. From declining supply and shifts in demand, this new report illuminates key trends and highlights the critical importance of supporting the child care sector with targeted investments and strategic improvements.

This executive summary and accompanying website (featuring interactive digital maps) provide an overview of the key findings and a breakdown of the data across neighborhoods in D.C.
