GET INVOLVED

Ways to Act Now:
 

Support Strong Federal Investments in Child Care and Early Learning

Every day, first responders answer the call to protect our communities—but behind every uniform is a family navigating the same child care challenges as so many others. Send a message urging your Members of Congress to protect and prioritize the child care programs families depend on.​​​​

Tell Congress

Help Ensure a Strong Workforce
of Today and Tomorrow

Ohio needs an investment in early childhood education. Failing to invest in child care results in a signifcant loss of human and economic potential in the workforce. A stronger Ohio recognizes the economic benefits of investing in the early years.

Family Action Network
