Report: Montana averages one child care slot for every three kids

A new report lays out in detail the challenges parents face when securing child care in Montana. The study was done by KIDS COUNT Montana, a project of the non-profit Montana Budget and Policy Center.

“The child care challenges that we’re talking about today have existed for many years; they’ve been highlighted even more as the result of the pandemic,” says Xanna Burg, KIDS COUNT Coordinator.
