Abstract

The 2020 Oregon Household Survey was administered to parents and other care¬givers of children aged 0 to 5 years in Fall 2020. Questions explored a range of topics including whether the COVID-19 pandemic had affected families’ usage of child care and early education, whether families’ whose care had been disrupted received any services from their providers, the challenges and barriers faced by families trying to find child care and education during the pandemic, families’ concerns about and preferences for care in the future, and families’ experiences of suspensions and/or expulsions from care.
