2025 Child Care and Early Learning State Fact Sheets

FFYF’s 2025 State Fact Sheets explore how federal investments in child care and early learning impact working parents, young children, and the broader economy across all 50 states and Washington, D.C. These federal funds form the backbone of America’s early learning and care system, supporting families nationwide. These fact sheets break down what federal funding reaches states, how states are investing, and how programs support working families, young children, and local economies.

Use the interactive map below to explore how programs like the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG), Head Start, and Preschool Development Grant Birth through Five (PDG B-5) are supporting families in your state. 

Note: These fact sheets use the most recent available data, which ranges from 2021 to 2025 depending on the program/funding source. A full list of references and notes about methodology can be found here.
