Michigan Women s Commission releases results of statewide Survey on Child Care Use, continues to advocate for expanded child care option
February 11, 2021
The Michigan Women’s Commission (MWC) released the results of their statewide Survey of Child Care Use During the Pandemic and the Department of Technology, Management and Budget’s (DTMB) preliminary research on women in the 2020 Michigan workforce.
Conducted from September through October last fall, MWC’s Survey of Child Care Use During the Pandemic shows that a majority of parents prefer to care for their children themselves in their home or use family and friends for child care during the pandemic. When asked about post-pandemic, nearly half of the respondents report a desire to send their kids outside the home to licensed child care centers.
