In fiscal year 2010–2011, the state of California provided $ billion per year in funding for child care and development programs, though this amount is slated to be cut in fiscal year 2011–2012 (Ehlers 2011). Some of these state expenditures are paid for using federal funding through the Child Care and Development Fund, the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program, and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.
