Description: This descriptive study
aims to provide insight into the models
that have been used to centralize
services; organizations’ history of and
impetus for centralizing services; the
benefits, challenges, and costs of
centralizing services from the
perspectives of staff and clients; and
how organizations have coordinated
their centralized services virtually. This
project will include site visits to three
centralized community resource centers
(CCRCs). The proposed information
collection activities include interviews
with staff, including leadership and
administrative staff, frontline staff,
finance staff, and IT/data staff, and
focus groups with clients. The research
team will also conduct observations of
program activities.
Respondents: Respondents will
include leadership and administrative
staff at the CCRC, staff who manage
finances at the CCRC, staff who manage
data and/or technology at the CCRC,
staff who provide services directly to
clients at the CCRC, and clients who
have accessed services at the CCRC.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: In the context of the
COVID–19 pandemic, the NSECE
COVID–19 Follow-up will deepen our
understanding of the state of ECE
supply and the ECE workforce following
the initial period of crisis, including
changes in supply or departures from
and re-entries to the workforce. The
NSECE COVID–19 Follow-up is
collecting information from centerbased ECE providers to children birth
through age 5 years, not yet in
kindergarten, home-based ECE
providers that serve children under age
13, as well as the ECE workforce
providing these services. The collection
consists of three coordinated nationally
representative surveys:
1. A two-wave survey of individuals
who provided paid care for children
under the age of 13 in a residential
setting as of 2019 and participated in
the 2019 NSECE (Home-based Provider
Interview),
2. a two-wave survey of providers of
care to children ages 0 through 5 years
of age (not yet in kindergarten) in a nonresidential setting (Center-based
Provider Interview) as of 2019 and that
participated in the 2019 NSECE, and
