TAKE THE PLEDGE
Stand With Families, Employers, Churches and Communities to Expand Quality Care. Every family deserves access to safe, affordable, high-quality child care and early learning — a foundation for children’s success, thriving workplaces, and strong communities.
By signing this pledge, I commit to supporting meaningful solutions that expand access to quality child care and early learning for all families.
I PLEDGE TO:
Advocate for accessible, affordable child care and early learning options in my community and state
Support parents and caregivers in balancing work and family life
Encourage local leaders, businesses, and faith communities to invest in child care solutions
Help create environments where every child can learn, grow, and thrive
WHY THIS MATTERS
FOR PARENTS
Child care isn’t just a convenience — it’s essential to family well-being. Lack of dependable care forces parents to reduce work hours, leave jobs, or face financial strain. Quality care gives children a strong start and families the stability they need to flourish.
FOR BUSINESSES
Employers depend on a reliable workforce. When child care is scarce or unaffordable, employees miss work, experience stress, and may leave the workforce altogether. Supporting child care solutions helps businesses hire and retain talent, boosts productivity, and strengthens local economies.
FOR CHURCHES & FAITH COMMUNITIES
Faith communities play a vital role in strengthening families and neighbors. By supporting child care access — through advocacy, programs, and community partnerships — churches live out their mission of service and care for all generations.
SIGN THE PLEDGE
Your voice matters. Together, we can expand access to quality child care and early learning — for every family, every worker, and every community.
