abstract: 'Affordable child care is an essential support for families with young

  children, and quality of care impacts a range of child development

  outcomes. Still, many families face a number of barriers to accessing

  high-quality care. Given the necessary resources for raising a child

  with a disability, high-quality child care may be particularly salient

  for families with a child with a disability. Yet, these families face

  additional challenges to accessing appropriate care, and children with

  disabilities may be less likely to be receiving quality care than their

  nondisabled peers. Despite these challenges, little empirical work has

  been done to examine differences in child care arrangements between

  families who have a child with a disability and those who do not. Using

  data from the National Household Education Surveys (NHES) Early

  Childhood Program Participation (ECPP) surveys, this paper seeks to

  understand if there are differences in the types of arrangements used.

  Results suggest young children with disabilities are 50\% more likely to

  be enrolled in formal, center-based care compared to no enrollment in

  child care and 25\% less likely to be enrolled in informal care compared

  to center-based care than their nondisabled peers, with additional

  differences by household income and child''s age. Findings offer a

  crucial first step in understanding child care arrangements for young

  children with disaiblities and indicate that center-based care may be

  particularly important for families.'
