Increase access to help children and families thrive

Child Care

Rethink how your child care agency serves children and families in need.

Reclaim staff capacity to do more good

For state economies to recover and grow in a post-pandemic world, it is critical for states to help workers get back to work. To successfully do so, they must first tackle one of the biggest barriers to workers (re)entering the workforce:  child care.

Often overlooked as an economic driver, access to high-quality and affordable child care is the key to more jobs, better futures for children, and more productive workers.

Unfortunately, today’s child care system is not prepared to deliver on this promise.

To realize and truly maximize the potential that child care offers, we must first create a more modernized, robust, customer-focused system/program that meets the needs of today’s families. It must be easy to understand and navigate, affordable and worth the investment, and offer a comprehensive provider network qualified and ready to provide the level of care families need, expect and trust.

Quite simply – it’s time to reimagine child care. But how can you and your team – already facing a staff capacity crisis and struggling to meet demand – find the time to modernize?

This is where the Change & Innovation Agency (C!A®) team comes in to help.

Using our proven, capacity-building approaches and SaaS technology solutions, we help you rethink how the important work of your agency gets done – allowing you to reclaim the capacity you need to better and more quickly serve families and providers and improve outcomes that matter most.

Transform how the work of government gets done

Using our proven and unique methods, we challenge the government’s status quo. While many focus on tackling symptoms, we focus on underlying problems (which are almost always tied to broken systems) to help you increase your capacity to do all the good our citizens need us to do in this world.

Public servants by experience and at heart, Change & Innovation Agency’s (C!A®) team understands first-hand the challenges that you and your team face as you work to deliver vital safety net benefits to children and families in need.

Our Team

Together, we work with you and your team to increase your capacity to do more good.

It all comes down to timeliness — how quickly you can deliver services to those who need them. That’s what our families care about, that’s what our legislators care about. With the transition to process management, we’ve turned our cycle time around. Applications that used to take 22 or 23 days to process, now take an average of 5.
