Source: findchildcarewa.org Use toggles to filter facilities participating in the Early Achievers ratings program, with primary language Somali. State subsidy/grant funding requires participation in Early Achievers.

Clarification: 5046 is the total number of childcare centers participating in the Early Achievers state ratings program. Care providers must be participating in Early Achievers to be eligible for state subsidies and grants.

The same search tool shows a total of 5046 childcare centers in WA state. So over 10% of childcare centers in the state list Somali as the primary language. And most are concentrated in the Seattle/Tacoma/Western WA region. Seems high. I’d say it’s fair to be skeptical.
