care and early education (CCEE)
workforce in Colorado as part of the

development strategies designed to
promote, retain, and advance the CCEE
workforce by improving the economic
well-being of CCEE workers.

Description: As part of the BASE
project, OPRE is evaluating the
implementation, impacts, and costs of
two initiatives designed to improve the
wages and economic well-being of the
CCEE workforce in Colorado. Colorado
Department of Early Childhood (CDEC)
is implementing two initiatives to
improve the compensation and
economic well-being of the CCEE
workforce: (1) eligible CCEE centerbased settings are randomly selected
through a lottery process, and (2)
eligible home-based CCEE settings
receive additional funding and
supports. OPRE proposes to collect
survey, interview, and cost data to
understand: (a) the implementation and
costs of the initiatives, (b) the effects of
the initiative for teachers in centerbased CCEE settings, and (c) the
experiences of directors and teachers in
center-based CCEE settings and owners
and caregivers in home-based CCEE
settings with the initiatives. The study
will include CCEE workers who are
offered the initiatives and those who are
not, as assigned through CDEC’s lottery,
and key informants who are involved in
the design and implementation of
CDEC’s initiatives. The effectiveness of
the initiative will be determined by
differences between members of the
intervention and control groups for
hypothesized outcomes in center-based
CCEE settings. The experiences of
directors/owners, teachers, and
caregivers in center-based and homebased CCEE settings with the initiatives
will be explored with qualitative and
descriptive analyses. OPRE and
Colorado are collaborating to evaluate
the two initiatives. Colorado will collect
baseline survey data and share it with
OPRE. OPRE will collect follow-up
surveys and interviews. Study
participants will complete follow-up
surveys approximately 9 and 18 months
after the initiatives begin to understand
how strategies that aim to improve
compensation might improve outcomes
such as workforce recruitment,
retention, and economic and
psychological well-being, as well as to
capture contextual information about
CCEE settings’ working conditions and
job demands and supports. Interviews
will be conducted approximately 6 to 9
months after the initiatives began with
center-based teachers/home-based
caregivers and center-based directors/
home-based owners to capture their
experiences with the initiatives,
perceptions, attitudes, beliefs about the
initiatives, and how these experiences
may shape the viability and
implementation of the initiatives.
