Abstract


Paper  Socio-Econometric Modeling and ArcView: A Study of Child Care Stability
Track: Health and Human Services
Author(s): Chi Kin Leung, Mark G. Hanna

The paper summarizes the final year of a study using geographic information systems to examine patterns of child care stability and utilization in central California. A socioeconometric model has been enhanced with detailed survey data and construction of supply-demand analysis down to the census block group level. Stability factors such as cost, transportation availability, and welfare-to-work status, are examined along with questions of family preferences and provider access.
