The objectives of the 2024 NSECE
Longitudinal Follow-ups are to build on
the design and implementation of the
2024 NSECE to collect urgently needed
information on the following two topics
relevant to early care and education
(ECE) policy: (1) how households learn
about and make use of financial
assistance in seeking and selecting ECE,
with additional focus on paid
individual care arrangements; and (2)
patterns of retention and attrition among
individuals in the center-based ECE
workforce.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of
publication. In compliance with the
requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, ACF is soliciting
public comment on the specific aspects
of the information collection described
above.
ADDRESSES: You can obtain copies of the
proposed collection of information and
submit comments by emailing
OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov.
Identify all requests by the title of the
information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The 2024 NSECE
Longitudinal Follow-ups will consist of
two nationally representative surveys:
1. a survey of households (1) with
incomes under 300 percent of the
federal poverty level (FPL) and with at
least one resident child under the age of
9 years and/or (2) who had used paid
care by an individual in the spring of
2024 (2024 NSECE Household Followup)
2. a survey of individuals who were
employed in early 2024 in center-based
ECE programs working directly with
children in classrooms serving children
age 5 years and under, not yet in
kindergarten (2024 NSECE Workforce
Follow-up).
Participants will be drawn from
respondents to the 2024 NSECE
Household and Workforce surveys.
The 2024 NSECE Longitudinal
Follow-up data collection efforts will
provide urgently needed information
that will expand the potential of the
2024 NSECE data to describe: (1)
households’ search for and use of
financial assistance for ECE (including
assistance for paid individual care
arrangements); and (2) employment
experiences of individuals who have
recently worked in center-based ECE
classrooms. The household follow-up in
PO 00000
Frm 00045
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

Fall 2024 will re-interview households
participating in the 2024 NSECE who (1)
report using paid individual ECE or (2)
report incomes below 300 percent of the
FPL and have at least one resident child
under age 9 years. The workforce
follow-up in early 2025 will reinterview individuals who participated
in the 2024 NSECE workforce survey
(i.e., served as center-based classroomassigned instructional staff between
January and July 2024). Both follow-up
surveys are designed to collect in-depth
information that was not feasible to
collect in the 2024 NSECE and which
can be uniquely collected through reinterviews of selected 2024 NSECE
participants. The household follow-up
will include information about
households’ awareness of and
experience with publicly funded ECE
programs, how households selected ECE
arrangements for Fall 2024, and who
provided paid individual care to the
households’ children in early 2024. The
workforce follow-up will include
information about the experiences of
ECE instructional staff over time, where
workers who leave ECE employers or
the ECE sector go and why they leave,
and workers’ experiences in various
ECE settings throughout their ECE
careers. Accurate data on families with
young children and the experiences of
ECE workers are essential to assess the
current landscape of ECE, and to
provide insights to advance ECE policy
and initiatives. The household followup will be fielded using multi-mode
survey methodologies in Fall 2024, and
the workforce follow-up will be fielded
using multi-mode survey methodologies
in the first half of 2025. Both follow-ups
will enhance the value of the 2024
NSECE by expanding the potential
utility of those data to describe
household and worker experiences over
time and to address additional
information needs.
Respondents: 1. Households
participating in the 2024 NSECE and
either a. reporting a paid individual ECE
arrangement in the 2024 NSECE, or b.
having at least one resident child under
age 9 and who reported incomes under
the 300 percent Federal poverty level in
the 2024 NSECE. 2. Individuals who
participated in the 2024 NSECE survey
of center-based classroom-assigned
instructional staff (workforce).
