Grassroots Assembly for Child Care

We're ready to create a child care system that works for every family.

We've been convening impacted families, child care providers, and organizers across the country to transform our child care system.

The Grassroots Assembly for Child Care is an annual, regional event that convenes parents, providers, caregivers, organizers, and allies committed to advancing child care as a racial, economic, and gender justice issue!

  • 2022: West Coast Grassroots Assembly in Albuquerque, New Mexico
  • 2023: East Coast Grassroots Assembly in Washington, D.C.
  • 2024: Midwest Grassroots Assembly in Minneapolis, Minnesota
  • 2025: Location in the South coming soon!

Leaders have the opportunity to connect, learn, build power together, and discuss strategies to move forward across states through an aligned national strategy.
