Sacramento Bee Editorial Makes a Strong Case for Child Care

On December 21st, the Sacramento Bee Editorial Board published an opinion piece calling on California policymakers to prioritize and support child care. The article describes the importance of quality care and education for children aged 0 to 5, and spells out the serious challenges faced by early childhood care and learning providers.   

The editorial is an encouraging development, because California legislators tend to follow Sacramento news and media. Let’s hope this article reminds lawmakers to listen to the needs of families, employers and early childhood care and learning providers!
