Tell policymakers it's time to invest in child care.
Child care providers and families from across the country have been fighting for generations for equitable access to affordable child care and better pay and working conditions for providers.
Yet child care providers continue to struggle without the funding they need to care for our youngest learners and parents continue to have problems finding and affording child care for their children. The child care system is in crisis and we need BOLD action now.
Let's send a message to politicians that our country does not work for even one “day without child care.”
Children, families and communities can’t afford to wait any longer. Will you be a changemaker for child care?
Email your legislators and share these video of what #ADayWithoutChildCare means for parents.
Let's send the message home!

#ADayWithoutChildCare means parents struggling to keep their job and make ends meet. It means empty #childcare center classrooms, as providers can't find staff while there is a waiting list. Tell #legislators no more. #ReimagineChildCare - visit https://t.co/s5fCcEWgIO pic.twitter.com/T8IG7wLdcV
