2024 National Survey of Early Care and Education

OMB 0970-0391 · HHS/ACF.

OMB 0970-0391

The 2024 National Survey of Early Care and Education (NSECE) and 2024 NSECE Longitudinal Follow-ups are funded by the Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation, Administration for Children & Families (ACF), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). These information collection activities are part of ACF’s ongoing effort to better understand the availability and use of ECE across the nation. Data collection for the 2024 NSECE began in November 2023 and baseline data collection is scheduled to run through November 2024. All planned and approved activities are being implemented and are ongoing, with no revisions to the currently approved plan at this time. This request is specific to the addition of two follow-up data collections: one with households and one with workforce respondents who complete interviews in the 2024 NSECE. The 2024 NSECE data will provide consistent and representative data to ACF for better understanding how the ECE landscape has changed since 2012 and the extent to which funding that resulted from legislative responses is associated with changes in the ECE system. Data from the 2024 NSECE Longitudinal Follow-ups will provide consistent and representative data to ACF for more in-depth understanding households’ search and selection of ECE, and for workforce participation in the ECE field over time. The objectives of the 2024 NSECE Longitudinal Follow-ups are to build on the design and implementation of the 2024 NSECE to collect urgently needed information on two topics relevant to ECE policy: 1) how households learn about and make use of financial assistance in seeking and selecting ECE, with additional focus on paid individual care arrangements; and 2) patterns of retention and attrition among individuals in the center-based ECE workforce.
