Minimum Standards For Child Care Centers In Arkansas Changing

National Association for Education of Young Children

It's been more than 45 years since Arkansas changed minimum standards for child care facilities. That's left the state falling far behind the rest of the country and often criticized by national education groups.

KUAR's Karen Tricot Steward spoke with Kate Luck of the Department of Human Services on new requirements being implemented and what parents with children in child care centers can expect.

Karen Tricot Steward was a News Anchor, Reporter and Content Development Director for UA Little Rock Public Radio.
