The Affordable Care Act Webinar:  What Early Care and Education Providers Need to Know

Tuesday, December 17, 2013
1:00-2:30 PM EST/10:00 AM-11:30 AM PST
More than 1 million home and center-based teachers and caregivers who currently do not have health insurance may be impacted by new health insurance opportunities made possible by the Affordable Care Act (ACA).  A healthy individual caring for young children is an important aspect of children's ability to develop, learn, and thrive.  Health insurance and access to care can provide parents, family members, and early care and education providers with health security and peace of mind that allows better support of child learning and exploration.
In partnership with the Head Start National Center on Health and Healthy Child Care America at the American Academy of Pediatrics, National Association for the Education of Young Children, National Association of Family Child Care, National Head Start Association, and Child Care Aware, the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Offices of Child Care, Head Start, and the Chief Medical Officer are hosting a 90 minute webinar on the ACA for early care and education providers.  The webinar will discuss tax and employer provisions that may affect providers, information on the Health Insurance Marketplace, and the role that early care and education providers can play in raising awareness about ACA and the Health Insurance Marketplace.

Who Should Participate?

*         Child Care Center Directors and Staff

*         Family Child Care Home Providers

*         Head Start Directors, Program Managers, Staff
