2016_04_14_Child_Care_Tax_Credit_Campaign_Tool_KitHelp keep the momentum. Share our Child Care Tax Credit Campaign Tool Kit.  

Many New Jersey families spend a staggering quarter of earnings on child care. Low-income families spend even more — almost half. When you factor in New Jersey’s sky-high living costs, many working parents are forced to choose between giving their kids quality child care or putting food on the table.

Proposed legislation, S-1453/A-331, would bring relief to struggling parents, helping them to afford the quality care crucial to a young child’s growth and development.

Sign the petition today to support a NJ child care tax credit.

Share the campaign tool kit with your colleagues, family and friends.
