Then and Now: Insights into Early Childhood Care and Education Beginning in 1991, we participated in a massive national study of whether child care harms children (it does not). Today, Wendy Wagner Robeson, Ed.D., is studying how to get home-based child care providers into the field and keep them there.

Then and Now: Leading the Way in Out-of-School Time When the School-Age Childcare Project was founded in 1978, it brought national attention to the importance of out-of-school time (OST). Today, NIOST is helping OST programs embed literacy into everyday practices.

Then and Now: Tackling the Most Critical Global Issues In 1976, we hosted a groundbreaking international conference on Women and Development. Today, Layli Maparyan, Ph.D., is involving women, youth, and others in efforts to combat climate change in Liberia.
