Child care workers' pay, benefits, and economic security are tied to racist and sexist systems that devalue their labor. Let's work towards a system that undoes structural harms so child care professionals can access the supports they deserve. #CareWeek clasp.org/press-room/new…
On April 30 at 2pm ET, we’re partnering with @BUILDInitiative, administrators, parents, and advocates to discuss how social services can be better aligned to support families with young children. Register for the webinar here: buildinitiative-org.zoom.us/webinar/regist…
Register now for our upcoming webinar with @BUILDInitiative about how to create a system that would better support families with prenatal to three aged children! buildinitiative-org.zoom.us/webinar/regist…
Today marks one year since President Biden signed the Executive Order on Increasing Access to Care. Such significant progress has been made over the last year. Much more to do to achieve equitable, affordable child care. Let’s go! whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
We’re committed during #BMHW24 and always to create better #maternalhealth outcomes by fighting to expand access to mental health care, postpartum care, and nutritional benefits - making sure birthing people get the resources they need. clasp.org/blog/expanding…
In the United States, 29–44% of Black women experience postpartum depressive symptoms, yet few are properly identified or have access to mental care services. Congress must invest in maternal health to support Black birthing people's well-being. #BMHW24 clasp.org/blog/global-me…
Today kicks off the 7th Annual #BlackMaternalHealthWeek. Reproductive health justice, increased access to care, and equity in healthcare must prioritize all Black women, Black Mamas, and Black Birthing People. #BMHW24
President Biden’s proposed FY25 budget would invest $600 billion in mandatory child care and universal pre-K funding over the next 10 years. Read more in CLASP’s new analysis from @CLASPShira and @SCSchmit evaluating the proposal: clasp.org/blog/understan…
President Biden, caregivers, policymakers, advocates, and more came together today to uplift the importance of the care economy. We are unwavering in our support for child care providers and other caregivers whose work cannot be taken for granted. #CareCantWait
We are proud to join @NAEYC and other partners in celebrating the Week of the Young Child. We urge policymakers to recognize, support, and compensate #childcare providers and #ECE educators for the work they do. #WOYC24 clasp.org/wp-content/upl…
Most child care facilities operate on profit margins of less than 1%, and many struggle to keep their doors open. Read about the White House and Small Business Administration's newly announced actions to support small businesses that offer child care: whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…
Interested in knowing what the $725 million (9%) increase for CCDBG in the FY24 funding bill means for your state? Read the new CLASP report with state-by-state estimates of the distribution of these resources: clasp.org/publications/f…
66% of families somewhat or strongly agree that more affordable child care would allow them to advance their careers or switch jobs to better suit their lives. A @CLASP_DC and @DataProgress poll reinforces the need for accessible child care: clasp.org/blog/new-poll-…
🎉Introduced today: @SenBobCasey leads the Senate intro of the Early Childhood Nutrition Improvement Act. He joins @RepBonamici @RepMolinaroNY19 in efforts to increase meal access for families and support caregivers. #CACFP casey.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…
This #WomensHistoryMonth, we uplift working women and the women in the child care workforce who deserve accessible care and fair wages for their work. Investments in affordable #childcare are a catalyst for both gender equity and economic growth. clasp.org/press-room/new…
The Child and Adult Care Food Program provides children and adults with healthy food. We are proud to join partners in celebrating and uplifting CACFP this week for all of the providers and children who benefit from the program. cacfp.org/campaign/
President Biden’s newly released FY2025 budget includes over $600b for child care and early education, meaning most families would pay no more than $10/day for care. Let's make this a reality so families can access affordable care that meets their needs. whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/

TCF's own @JulieKashen joined a @WhiteHouse panel today to deliver a clear message: we won't be able to fill the jobs created by the CHIPS and Infrastructure acts if workers can't access quality, affordable child care.
Loved talking to @MomsRising moms yesterday about how powerful their stories are and how important it is to help policy makers see child care challenges through their eyes. Moms want the best for their children and it’s time we support all families w/ #childcareforall
If we want the best economy in the world, we have to have the best caregiving economy. But the cost of care is too high, and pay for care workers is too low. Our nation’s caregivers are heroes – we need them – and under my budget, they're going to get the dignity they deserve.

CLASP is ready to support our friends at #CareCantWait! It’s time we prioritize child care, elder care, and our care economy that keeps our country moving!
TY @POTUS for rallying with #CareCantWait today! And for sharing the thought that “If we want the best economy in the world we have to have the best care economy in the world.” @ZEROTOTHREE is proud to work w/you to make that a reality for all babies and families.
CLASP applauds @POTUS for recognizing the hard working caregivers that keep our country safe and healthy. #CareCantWait #TheCareEconomy
