Home Grown partnered with the Erikson Institute to create the Building Comprehensive Home-Based Child Care Networks: Evaluation Toolkit. This Toolkit is intended to help evaluate Home-based Child Care (HBCC) networks. It includes tools that can be used to collect data to assess an initiative’s progress toward meeting its goals. Utilizing this toolkit can help assess a network’s impact, promote continuous improvement, support case making and provide evidence and data around HBCC providers.

Over the past several months, the Home Grown team has worked with provider leaders and our advisory communities to develop a set of principles for what a universal child care system should look like when it fully includes home-based child care. The result is our first draft of a shared vision: Universal Child Care, Built From Home.
