Child Care

In New York, achieving universal child care requires more than technical policy fixes—it requires building power with families and educators who experience the child care system every day. The Empire State Campaign for Child Care (ESCCC) is a statewide coalition of policy advocates; early childhood and afterschool educators across all settings – centers, homes, and school-based care; and parents working together to make child care a public good rather than a private burden.

In Louisiana, advancing equitable early childhood policy requires more than technical solutions – it requires listening to families and sharing power with those most impacted by the systems meant to support young children. Geaux Far Louisiana is a statewide coalition of parents and early childhood health and education leaders working together to transform Louisiana’s early childhood systems so they better meet the needs of families.
