Child care provided by family, friends, and neighbors (FFN) has long been
critical in supporting immigrant and Dual Language Learner (DLL) families
who are seeking to find safe, affordable, and culturally and linguistically
relevant child-care options for their young children. While FFN caregivers
offer important and resource-intensive services to these families, these
types of care continue to be left out of policy conversations, professional
development efforts, and funding considerations. With FFN care providers
and the families that depend on them already significantly underserved by
child-care and other systems, efforts to expand and improve child care that
fail to take account of their needs may ultimately exacerbate gaps in
quality and equity.

In this webinar, MPI Senior Policy Analyst Maki Park will provide an
overview of a new policy brief she coauthored that discusses the importance
of FFN care for immigrant and DLL families as well as barriers that
immigrant-serving FFN caregivers face in accessing subsidies and other
public supports. Lorena Garcia, Executive Director of the Colorado
Statewide Parent Coalition (CSPC), will speak about program and policy
approaches to more equitably serve FFN caregivers that CSPC has supported
in Colorado. Natalie Renew, Director of Home Grown, will discuss
opportunities to leverage historic new investments contemplated for
child-care systems to better support FFN care providers and the families in
their care.
