A new Collaboration Playbook from Afterschool Alliance showcases how states can effectively use Child Care and Development (CCDF) funds to support school-age childcare through strategic partnerships. The playbook highlights examples from several states using our Program Quality Assessment (PQA) and emphasizes positive youth development, equitable quality improvement systems, and the importance of collaborative stakeholder engagement to create high-quality, accessible childcare solutions.
