IFF’s 2015 report, “The System We Need: A Neighborhood Snapshot of Early Childhood Education in Detroit” examined the early childhood education (ECE) landscape in Detroit, including estimates of supply, demand, and gaps.

IFF is again examining Detroit’s ECE system. As IFF’s methodology and assumptions for calculating child care gaps has changed since 2015, IFF has updated the 2015 estimates to better compare the 2015 and 2023 ECE gaps.
