CSEA/VOICE President Heidi-Jo Brandt testified in front of the NYS Senate Children and Families Committee communicating our 2023 Child Care Legislative Priorities:
1) Paying providers for the true cost of care, and not as a percentile of the market rate
2) Shifting from pay for attendance to pay for enrollment
3) Increasing and standardizing county plan options
4) Increasing Differential Rate for homeless and non-traditional hours care
Please look out for an email invite to join us and our coalition partners, The Empire State Campaign for Child Care (ECCC), for a Virtual Lobby Day via Zoom on February 7. Information will be available here very soon.
Be Counted.
Be Heard.
LET’S SUCCEED AGAIN for child care!
