The Louisiana Policy Institute for Childress 2024 Parent Poll is live
The Louisiana Policy Institute for Children and the Department of Education invite parents, guardians, and caregivers of children under 5-years old to share their experience with early childhood education in the state. The 2024 Parent Poll is live and LPIC CEO says the poll helps them understand how parents are navigating and accessing quality childcare.

“And not just families that are utilizing the childcare assistance program, but all families. Because we know that the single highest expense for just about all family is childcare.”

Sonnier says the poll is a powerful tool to understand how parents are navigating childcare and what are expenses related to childcare.

“And we use this date to help educate our elected officials about the importance of early childhood education in the state and use it really to drive policy change because parents are telling us what they need.”

The poll is live until Nov 20 and available in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese so it can capture a wide variety of family experiences throughout the state. Sonnier says the goal is to understand what barriers parents are experiencing and allow all parents to access quality childcare.

“We want to hear from all parents with children under the age of five so that we can understand what going on. What are their arrangements? How easy is it to find childcare? What are their expenses related to that? What is your work schedule, and much, much more.”
