We've all heard stories of children missing developmental growth opportunities due to a lack of early learning and childcare options. Others haven't received the support they need because fragmented state data hinders access. These are just a few examples of how incomplete data translates to missed opportunities for young children. Our Child Universal Success Platform (CUSP) can help change this narrative for children. It provides a holistic view, empowering agencies to proactively identify children in need and connect them with the right resources at the right time. Ready to make a difference?

Solving Missouri's child care puzzle is an economic imperative! A recent report and webinar series offers insights and examples from a growing national shared services movement in early child care and education. It also provides the context of Missouri initiatives and investments that local and state leaders could align and advance for development of shared service support to small and home-based child care providers. Shared services is a critical approach for local and state leaders to consider as families struggle to find and access child care.

We’re excited to announce our partnership with Home Grown and Thriving Providers Project to administer $4M in direct cash payments to over 600 Family, Friend and Neighbor (FFN) caregivers and newly licensed Family Child Care (FCC) home-based providers. Home-based child care providers care for approximately?11.5 million children, with 60% of them aged 0-5 years old. Home-based child care providers are also the preferred child care provider for a variety of families, including Black and Latinx families, rural families, families with nontraditional or unpredictable work schedules, and those with low incomes. Despite their essential role, home-based child care providers often face significant financial hardships, with 30-40% needing a second job to achieve financial stability. This financial insecurity impacts both caregiver and child well-being, as material hardships can reduce emotional well-being and undermine the quality of care. This initiative seeks to demonstrate the impact of direct cash to reform child care payment policies and influence future decisions around compensation for home-based child care providers. Beam is proud to continue to support transformative more initiatives in the care economy and to work with wonderful partners like Home Grown.
