States Take Action for Infants and Toddlers!

Financing
States must develop fiscal policies that move systems toward delivery of services in a comprehensive manner and that provide financial incentives for ongoing quality and system improvement.
Strategic financing strategies allow and incentivize braiding and blending of funding streams; leverage federal, state, local, and private dollars across systems; and secure sufficient and sustainable funding to support progress toward common goals. Thinking creatively about how to prioritize infants and toddlers in state budgets – through set-asides or specific line items – can ensure their needs are not overlooked.
