Squandering America's Future - Why ECE Policy Matters for Equality, Our Economy, and Our Children

Offers a pioneering guide to the big issues in contemporary early childhood policy. Written in a lively, personal style, the book drives home the importance of the earliest years for developing human capital - the nation’s future. Susan Ochshorn’s “policy tales” highlight the abject failure of the US to support parents and early educators, and will inspire a new generation of leadership.
