  • Child Care Access in 2020
    Summer 2019 CHILD CARE ACCESS IN 2020: How will pending state mandates affect availability in Franklin County, Ohio? Abel J. Koury, Ph.D., Jamie O’Leary, MPA, Laura Justice, Ph.D., Jessica A.R. Logan, Ph.D., James Uanhoro INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE Child care provision is a critical service for children and their families, and it can also bolster the workforce and larger economy. For child care to truly be beneficial, however, it must be affordable, accessible, and high quality. A current state requirement regarding child care programming may have enormous implications for many of Ohio’s most vulnerable families who rely on funding for child care. Specifically, by 2020, any Ohio child care provider that accepts Publicly Funded Child Care (PFCC) subsidies must both apply to and receive entry into Ohio’s quality rating and improvement system – Step Up To Quality (SUTQ) (the “2020 mandate”). The purpose of this paper is two-fold. First, we aim to provide an in-depth examination of the availability of child care in Franklin County, Ohio, with a specific focus on PFCC-accepting programs, and explore how this landscape may change in July of 2020. Second, we aim to examine the locations of programs that are most at risk for losing child care sites, highlighting possible deserts through the use of mapping. Crane Center for Early Childhood Research and Policy Improving children’s well-being through research, practice, and policy.1 2020 SUTQ Mandate: What is at stake? According to an analysis completed by Franklin County Jobs and Family Services (JFS), if the 2020 mandate went into effect today, over 21,000 young children would lose their care (Franklin County Jobs and Family Services, 2019).

  • Relationships, Community, and Housing Preferences in Linden
    Would They Stay or Would They Go? Relationships, Community, and Housing Preferences in Linden THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degrees Master of Arts and Master of City and Regional Planning in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Hayden Shelby, B.A. Graduate Program in City and Regional Planning and Graduate Program in Geography The Ohio State University 2014 Master's Examination Committee: Ola Ahlqvist, Advisor Rachel Kleit, Advisor Bernadette Hanlon Kendra McSweeney Copyrighted by Hayden Shelby 2014 Abstract Over the past five decades a host of housing policies have been implemented with the aim of redressing racial segregation and breaking up areas of concentrated poverty. Many of these efforts, known as dispersal policies, attempt to relocate residents from areas of high poverty to higher income areas. However, many of these programs have met with dubious success. Some studies suggest that housing location choice and successful relocation is strongly dependent on social ties to the relocatees’ home communities, and little is known about how prevalent the desire to relocate is in low income communities or what motivates people to participate in relocation programs. This thesis uses mixed methods to examine the housing situations, neighborhood attitudes, and social networks of residents of the Linden neighborhood in Columbus, Ohio. The results suggest that many residents feel attached to their community, even if they struggle with housing instability or would like to have higher quality housing. This is due in part to social ties within the community and in part to a general sense of comfort and familiarity with the neighborhood.
