Child Care Licensing Study, 2008

Published by ACF | U.S. Department of Health & Human Services | Metadata Last Checked: June 26, 2025 | Last Modified: 2025-02-03
The purpose of the 2008 Child Care Licensing Study is to report two aspects of child care licensing from 2008 for all 50 states and the District of Columbia (not including Idaho): (1) state child care licensing programs and policies and (2) child care center and family child care home licensing regulations. The study focuses on the processes and policies in each state related to staffing for the licensing program, monitoring facilities, and enforcement of licensing regulations. To collect information on states' licensing policies, including staffing, monitoring, and enforcement of licensing regulations, the National Association for Regulatory Administration (NARA) disseminated the 2008 NARA Child Care Licensing Program Survey to all state child care licensing agencies in May 2009. Responses were received from all states. The survey focused on the processes and policies in each state related to staffing for the licensing program, monitoring facilities, and enforcement of licensing regulations. <b>Units of Response: </b>State <b>Type of Data: </b>Survey <b>Tribal Data: </b>No <b>Periodicity: </b>One-time <b>Demographic Indicators: </b>Not Applicable <b>SORN: </b> https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2022/01/24/2022-01066/privacy-act-of-1974-system-of-records <b>Data Use Agreement: </b>Unavailable <b>Data Use Agreement Location: </b> Not Applicable <b>Granularity: </b>State <b>Spatial: </b>United States <b>Geocoding: </b>Unavailable
