The overall findings of the study indicate that, according to program sponsors, the demonstration provided important benefits, both by enabling public housing residents to seek education, training, or employment, and by delivering day care services accessible to these residents. Although child care is but one factor leading to employment and self-reliance, the study showed that the availability of reliable and affordable child care seemed to provide a stimulus and connection to the work world for parents in public housing. Once started, the clear need and strong interest by residents and sponsoring agencies have resulted in the continuation of most programs after the demonstration grants ended.
