2008 Child Development Center Survey

The intent of this survey was to gain a better understanding of the working conditions within the early care and education field and to collect critical information that could be used in a variety of ways such as future funding for retention and educational activities. Information collected
included salaries, turnover rates, benefits, educational levels of staff as well as general demographic information about staff members and will allow the Council to monitor progress towards improved working conditions and help determine strategies to address the issues. A similar survey was conducted in 2005 therefore comparison data is provided in many areas.
