Excerpt: "Amendments to the Child Day Care Act and the Early Learning and Child Care Standards Regulations, and new Early Learning and Child Care Funding Regulations came into force on May 1, 2023.
The updated and new regulations: Establish maximum fees for newly licensed early learning and child care programs that are consistent with the rates in place since the roll-out of the Child Care Fee Reduction (CCFR) Subsidy; Streamline how the GNWT delivers CCFR Subsidy funding to licensed programs to reduce administrative burden on program operators; Increase reporting measures to improve transparency and accountability by requiring the GNWT to produce annual reports; Update language for consistency and clarity; for example, ‘early learning and child care facility’ will replace ‘child day care facility’ throughout."

The Atkinson Centre promotes research on child development, and the development of early learning policy and practice that serve young children and their families.

Excerpt: "The Government of Canada is committed to improving the health and mental wellbeing of children and youth in Canada. Early childhood experiences influence a child’s mental health for life—and with 70% of mental health and substance use problems having origins in childhood, understanding how to better identify and treat young children at risk of developing or living with a mental health issue is crucial. Today, the Honourable Carolyn Bennett, Minister of Mental Health and Addictions and Associate Minister of Health, announced an investment of $6.5 million over five years for six projects funded through the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) Mental Health in the Early Years (MHITEY) initiative."
