True or False: Take the Child Care Challenge!

What is "high-quality child care"? Many people make some basic assumptions about child care quality that are just not true. The National Association of Child Care Resource & Referral Agencies conduced national studies on the topic. Test YOUR knowledge of the state of childcare in the U.S.

All childcare programs throughout the country are licensed according to federal and state standards.
In most two-parent families, both parents need to work in order to make ends meet. The need to work is even more acute for single parent families.
Most parents and grandparents are not willing to pay slightly more in taxes in order to improve child care quality.
Nail salons, pet kennels and cemeteries are regulated more rigorously than childcare.
Some childcare programs cost more per year than one year of college at a four-year public university.
