This tool aims to support states and local communities in combining, integrating, or coordinating multiple federal funding sources—such as Head Start and the Child Care and Development Fund—to expand access to high-quality early care and education (ECE) and comprehensive early childhood and family support services within a unified system. It provides guidance for those looking to integrate funding streams, offering insights into the process and directing them to available resources for assistance.
