The new federal child care rule will transfer child care costs from families to states—ultimately saving families money on child care. Read more about how this will work in our new analysis. pn3policy.org/blog/the-state… #childcare #federalpolicy
NY families should have access to home visiting & child care programs during the first few years of a child’s life. However, there is often a dearth or duplication in these services. Learn how #NYS can strengthen the intersection between the two programs: bit.ly/3u3bLYD

Every parent & caregiver’s story from @EdTrustNY & @Raising_NY’s Early Childhood Policy & Advocacy Lab is unique, and yet threads together a common theme for the need for increased support for New York State families with infants and toddlers: loom.ly/JRI_A8w
Over 5 million college students are also parents, including many of our LIFT families. These families face financial obstacles, limited resources, and many other challenges, yet they persist. Their resilience is always a source of inspiration! Learn more: n.pr/3U3Eb3H

A new report by @5boroinstitute finds that child care in NYC is a broken market in need of intervention. Cost estimation models, including one commissioned by Prenatal-to-5 Fiscal Strategies with @EdTrustNY & @Raising_NY can help anchor policy innovation: loom.ly/kb4wpqM
Child care is essential infrastructure—that's why most U.S. adults believe that the federal government should be investing more in child care programs—more than seven times the share of people who say there should be less investment. #ChildCareForAll tcf.org/content/commen…
Why is child care so expensive?? As our Policy Director explains: It's the result of "...decisions we've made as a country to not treat child care like a public good. We don't treat it the same way that we treat the education system." gothamist.com/news/why-child… @EmpireStateCCC
"The #NYWFTC is one way that NYS can show a commitment to families — especially at a time when there are plenty of parents and caregivers like me who cannot find high-quality, affordable child care." loom.ly/9fYKPKQ

"Every child should have access to child care regardless of where their parents work, what their background is, and what state they live in." - @JulieKashen #CareCantWait x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@GovKathyHochul: please support Senate Bill 8514A/Assembly Bill 9652A to expand Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library program statewide. Advancing literacy skills for children from birth is paramount to the lives of New York children and families. (🧵)
“We’re not going to see the entire credit that we want to see,” @LDSchwartzwald, the group’s director of economic justice and family empowerment, said. “But I think especially the proposal in the Senate would be an incredible step in that direction.” @NickReisman
Just in time for final NYS budget negotiations. I spoke w/ @karen_yi on why child care is so expensive: "There's plenty of evidence that it shouldn't be a cost that households have to bear on their own and that there should be concerted effort by the government to fill that gap."

“Our most vulnerable population here in Monroe County did not have access to doulas, and now they do, which is fantastic. Because we hear stories of what some people will say, they're being forced to do things that they don't want to do...” loom.ly/aYVpL-E #BMHW24

Local Imagination Libraries provide free books to children from birth through five. A statewide investment would support infrastructure, cut costs to communities, and ultimately allow New York to serve more children.
"You can never get enough books in the hands of enough children" - Dolly Parton📚 Today I followed Dolly's lead with AM @KarinesReyes87 and community advocates to call for funding to expand @dollyslibrary program statewide, putting free books in the hands of NY's youngest minds.
Inadequate child care is driving families out of our city, as 5BORO details in our latest report. To help tackle this issue, we have banded together with business, labor and nonprofit groups to form Better Child Care NYC. Learn more about our coalition: betterchildcare.nyc

@EdTrustNY and @Raising_NY are proud to have contributed to this detailed roadmap that will help further define the path towards a high-quality child care system for all New York City families.
To have a thriving economy that allows families to live and work in New York, our city needs accessible, high-quality child care. A new report out today from @5boroinstitute lays out a roadmap to get us there. Fiveboro.nyc/childcare
Thanks to all who came out yesterday in support of the Working Families Tax Credit & poverty-fighting budget actions. The #NYWFTC would be a boost for nearly all NYS families & an essential tool in reducing child poverty statewide. That's a lot to❤️! lnkd.in/eYRTuGpc
I'm showing some love today for NY’s families by supporting legislation such as the NYS Working Families Tax Credit which will bridge gaps left by prior legislation & the Mothers & Infants Lasting Change Allowance to provide monthly, unconditional cash assistance to new parents.
We have a strong group of legislators, advocates, and families here urging the state to center children in the NYS budget by including the Working Families Tax Credit *this year*! #NYWFTC
I'm proud to support the Mother & Infants Lasting Change (MILC) Allowance, which provides low-income mothers with a monthly cash allowance for 3 months of pregnancy & 18 months after birth. Every mother deserves to be able to access the resources her baby needs to thrive.
Calling all child care providers and businesses in NY! Gov. Hochul's $100 million initiative is here to support you. Apply for grants through the Child Care Capital Program and be part of building a brighter future for children. Learn more at ow.ly/PLUa50Qxrgt. #NYChildCare
Congratulations to @EdTrustNY on receiving an Esther A. & Joseph Klingenstein Fund Early Literacy grant to support The New York Campaign for Early Literacy, leveraging growing statewide interest and concern around early literacy outcomes and approaches for children.
Thank you to all the parents, providers and advocates who spoke with legislators and their staff today about the need for quality, affordable child care in every community. Your voices and stories make a difference! @EmpireStateCCC
Schuyler Center was so proud to support the Empire State Campaign for Child Care’s Advocacy Day today - 400 advocates, parents, and child care providers came together to call for investments in universal child care, this year!
Thrilled to have rallied today with MILC bill sponsors, advocates, & most importantly—Daniela, a mom in our program—fighting for inclusion of a cash allowance program for pregnant & parenting New Yorkers in this years budget. 🧵
Utica is on board for quality, affordable child care! Legislators, get ready! @EmpireStateCCC is on its way. These parents, providers and advocates have the facts and they expect action.
