It’s clearer than ever that we aren’t doing enough to support our kids. As an example, Pennsylvania ranks at #19 in nationwide investment in Pre-K, despite being the 5th largest state!
The proposed state budget is a great start, but there’s still a lot of work to do. From investing into health standards in schools to making sure teachers get the pay they deserve, we need lawmakers to know that this fight is just getting started.
That’s why we need your help. Please join us by becoming a Child Care voter! Let’s amplify our voices and be certain that our elected officials know that we are here to stay. There are so many great ways you can get involved in our movement, here are just a few.

When it comes to child care, there is so much at stake for our kids. We need to come together to make it clear that child care is an issue that really matters. As we inch closer and closer to the midterms, the time to make our voices heard is now!
