Amazing day at the Child Care Providers United California rally for #childcare workers alongside many ECECoalitionCA partners, marching for a state investment in quality child care. We need to fix & transform childcare & early learning in CA.
#FixChildCareCA #CareCantWait #ProKidCA
Forward together - inspired & excited to join amazing partners at the IMAGINE #ForwardTogether Rally today & to share voice & advocate with partners that are working together to #EndChildPoverty & #FixChildCareCA !
SB 380 has passed Assembly Human Services with bipartisan support! Gaps in child care impact us all and in order to close those gaps we must reinvigorate our care workforce. The time is now for rate reform! #FixChildCareCA #CareCantWait
CCRC staff as part of Child Care Aware of America’s Day on the Hill had successful meetings with our California leaders in Congress educating them on how #CareCantWait and the efforts being done to #FixChildCareCA .
Child care providers are such a great community of people. Happy to fight along some of the best for the 25% rate increases in the #CABudget #fixchildcareca California Governor
#ECEVoices advocates join Child Care Providers United California to raise our voices to #FixChildCareCA !
California runs on child care! Powerful testimony from parent w/ Parent Voices on the importance of #childcare & eliminating family fees. Families need access to childcare that they can afford!
#CareCantWait #FixChildCareCA
#CareCantWait Without an increase to reimbursement rates more #childcareproviders will be forced to close their doors permanently. An alternative rate based on the actual cost of care and a rate increase will help ensure child care providers can remain open. #FixChildCareCA
Appreciation can only go so far. #ChildCareProviders should be paid what they are worth and CCRC stands in proud support of #AB596 and #SB380 - two critical bills to ensure our children and families thrive! #FixChildCareCA #CareCantWait
#Childcareproviders are paid based on rates from 2016 data. Getting paid the true cost of care can help more programs stay open. The daily cost of living, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, has increased by 25% since 2016. #CareCantWait #FixChildCareCA
🧵Joined ECECoalitionCA in making paper dolls & dropping them off, asking #CALeg members to display to demonstrate their ongoing support to provide a rate increase to child care providers & adopt a more equitable family fee schedule in the final budget. #FixChildCareCA
Thank you Asm Majority Leader Emerita Eloise Reyes for your championing #ChildCare rate increases & finding a permanent solution for family fees. It’s time to fix & transform childcare & early learning in CA.

Thank you to the Assembly, Senate, and Legislative Women’s Caucus for making reimbursement rates a priority this budget year. #FixChildCareCA #CareCantWait
#TeamCCRC was out in #SacramentoCA at Parent Voices #Stand4Children23 event! We know that #CareCantWait for children, families, or #childcareproviders . #FixChildCareCA
Parents need accessible childcare to be able to work & for children to receive the best foundations for school & life. Rate increases for providers create greater access for families. An investment now is an investment in our future. #FixChildCareCA #CareCantWait #CABudget #ECE
Investing in our children and those who care for them benefits the child, family and helps support a thriving community. #CareCantWait #AB596 and #SB380 #FixChildCareCA
Child care providers are the backbone of our economy but are often undervalued and underpaid. If you pay child care providers a living wage, more providers can stay open, and parents in need of affordable child care can access them. #FixChildCareCA #CareCantWait
This year, #CASenate & #CAAssembly acted to #FixChildCareCA !
THANK YOU 💙Asm Majority Leader Emerita Eloise Reyes Senator Monique Limón California Legislative Women's Caucus Senator Toni Atkins Nancy Skinner Phil Ting Anthony Rendon Kevin McCarty Senator Caroline Menjivar💙
