**About the Early Childhood Outcomes Division**

As part of this reform, the government has established the Childcare and Economic Opportunity Fund - a $5 billion investment over 10 years to improve economic participation in the workforce, particularly for women, by addressing the barriers to affordable and accessible quality childcare. The Fund is also committed to the attraction and retention of the early childhood education and care (ECEC) sector workforce. You can find out more information about the Fund here.
