Evaluating the Eligibility Redetermination Period Extension in Illinois: Preliminary Report

This Chapin Hall study reviews the impact of eligibility extension from 6 months to 12 months in Illinois for families who receive child care subsidies under the Child Care and Development Fund. Key questions reflect whether families who receive automatic extensions experience longer periods of participation, if fewer child care providers are used by eligible families as result of an extended redetermination period, and whether consistent child care is provided over the longer period of time. The study notes that extending the redetermination period from 6 to 12 months has the potential to broadly impact the stability of child care.
