"That’s why, since 2017, the Empire State Campaign for Child Care has advocated for a thriving, universal, high-quality child care system that meets the real-life needs of all New York families — no matter where they live, what type of job they hold, or which hours they need care. We believe that every family in the state should be able to find free child care, a public service just like public school, with no immigration, work or income requirements. And we know that meeting that goal requires valuing the child care educators who will make it possible."

Parents struggle with child care waitlists: Will $500 million boost help solve the crisis?6/15/2023 In light of the recent politicized attacks on Developmentally Appropriate Practice in early childhood education, the Empire State Campaign for Child Care reaffirms our commitment to our Human rights, Equity, Anti-Racism, and Diversity Statement and Guiding Principles. ESCCC is committed to uplifting and amplifying the voices of those most harmed by systemic racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, poverty and other injustices, many of whom are children. We unconditionally reject marginalization in all forms and demand the institutional change necessary to dismantle systems that perpetuate injustice and inequity.
