Understanding the characteristics of infants and toddlers in our states and communities is an important first step for supporting children’s development during their most critical years. Making more detailed and comprehensive information available on the young children living in different communities can help stakeholders more strategically develop and target key services such as child care, home visiting, or other services for young children. For example, knowing how many young children live in low-income families and what share have parents working full time can help states and localities tailor child care investments and services to reach those families who most need assistance.

These case studies provide a framework for implementing
or replicating promising approaches to use two-generation initiatives
specifically with housing authority residents as means to improve
life outcomes. This report features communities in San Antonio, Texas and
Durham, North Carolina to examine the key components of two-generation
initiatives: social capital; early childhood education;
post-secondary education and workforce development; economic
assets; and health and well-being.
