Childcare Advocacy and Canadian Policy Processes: History and Practice From World War Two to the Present
This research project, conducted from April 1999 to March 2001, was sponsored by the Child Care Advocacy Association of Canada, and funded by Child Care Visions, Human Resources Development Canada. The Principal Investigator was Dr. Susan Prentice (Department of Sociology, University of Manitoba), who worked with the Project Advisory Team of Rebecca Kelley Scherer, Wendy Atkin, Maryann Bird, and CCAAC Executive Director Cynthia Magloughlin.
The research project explored the complex relationship between child care advocacy and the processes of policy development and change in English Canada, from 1945 to the late 1990s. The project was designed as participatory research, drawing heavily on the volunteer efforts of CCAAC Board members and child care advocacy organizations across the country. Read more about the project in the description from the CD Rom.
