Connect with us!
The Child Care for Every Family Network is a group of diverse organizations brought together by our passion for building an equitable child care system that works for everyone. We aim to help you gain a competitive advantage in applying for “CHIPS for America Incentives program” funding and to partner with you to ensure selected child care plans do not in any way undermine existing child care providers.
Partnering with us will not only leverage federal leadership, but also ensure a diverse set of child care providers–including “family child care” providers in key communities–can co-create a roadmap to deliver quality child care to your current and future workforce while investing in communities that need employment opportunities the most.
By the end of this guide, we hope you will see that it takes more than one company, one advocacy organization, or one simple solution to deliver equitable child care options for families. We invite you to join with our network of members to access local child care experts and advocates in the states and regions where you plan to invest. We look forward to supporting those local partnerships and working together to build a stronger, more equitable child care system.
