''This book is a must-read for every child care owner or director. The complexity of legal issues is explained in a way anyone can understand. Sample policies provided make for easy implementation. This book will help everyone (the child care programs, the child care staff, the parents, and most importantly the children served). This book is a priceless resource for the child care community.'' -- Ann Ditty, Past President, National Association for Regulatory Administration
''This book creates a bridge between the dualistic world of law, where solutions to problems are either right or wrong, just or unjust, legal or illegal, and the holistic and often paradoxical world of early care and education. The topics addressed are timely and of great concern to early childhood program administrators. Managing Legal Risks in Early Childhood Programs will empower directors to solve thorny legal and ethical problems in administering early childhood programs.'' -- Teri N. Talan, Director of Research and Public Policy, McCormick Center for Early Childhood Leadership, National Louis University, co-author of Program Administration Scale (PAS) and Business Administration Scale for Family Child Care (BAS)

Can my child care program be sued? If you have ever asked yourself this question, you are not alone.
