Book Description
This report discusses the services disadvantaged children need to prepare for school, the extent to which they receive these services from early childhood centers (defined as providing child development, parent, and health and nutrition services), and the reasons early childhood centers may not deliver all the services these children need. Chapter 1 describes the objectives, scope and methodology of the study and the funding of early childhood programs by federal and state governments. Chapter 2 discusses the full range of services needed to prepare children for school: developmentally appropriate, high quality services; parent services and health care and nutrition services. Chapter 3 presents two reasons why most disadvantaged children do not receive these services: they do not attend early childhood centers, and, if they do attend early childhood programs, the centers that they attend may provide only limited services. The limited number of places available in the centers, limited subsidies, and narrow program missions are discussed in chapter 4 as barriers which impede centers' efforts to provide services to disadvantaged children. The last chapter suggests changes required in the areas of funding and program missions so that the first national education goal, "by the year 2000, all children will enter school ready to learn" can be met. This report contains seven appendices including: description of selected federal programs that provide early childhood services; case studies of early childhood programs in four states; technical description of national data analyses; standards that apply to early childhood centers; and Department of Education comments.

Book Description
A Decade of Federal Antipoverty Programs: Achievements, Failures, and Lessons presents papers on the war on poverty, dealing with its origins, its education, health, and income maintenance programs, and its community action, legal services, and antidiscrimination policies. The book discusses poverty and social policy in the 1960s and 1970s; the social and political context of the war on poverty; and a decade of policy developments in the income-maintenance system. The text also describes a decade of policy developments in improving education and training for low-income populations; a decade of policy developments in providing health care for low-income families; and the mobilization of low-income communities through community action. 10 Years of legal services for the poor; and a decade of policy-developments in equal opportunities in employment and housing are also considered. Historians and people involved in political sciences will find the book invaluable.
