ACNJ is advocating for $35 million in the State Fiscal Year 2025 Budget to support the child care workforce.
-
- This funding would establish a pilot program to expand eligibility for child care subsidies to educators and staff who typically do not qualify.
- The benefit would help offset out-of-pocket costs for child care staff and incentivize them to remain in the field.
- Retaining these essential workers and strengthening the workforce is vital to ensuring New Jersey’s child care system is strong and stable.
