All Children, All Families Policy Agenda

Powered by Illinois Action for Children, the Sylvia Cotton Center for Research & Policy Innovation (SCCRPI) is an independent hub for research, policy analysis, and innovation in child care and early education program design.

SCCRPI created the All Children, All Families (ACAF) policy agenda to guide our pursuit of racial, gender, and economic equity for child care and early education programs throughout Illinois.
