We packed the Assembly Committee’s hearing room with advocates for children & families! The need to stabilize the child care industry is now more important than ever…. And we need to make child care affordable for working parents! I am grateful to the members of the Assembly Children, Families & Food Security Committee and Assembly Aging & Human Services Committee who were so genuinely engaged in the conversation to understand the issues and seek solutions! Making a difference together!

The child care system in New Jersey is on the brink of collapse and is a critical economic driver. Several leaders and organizations in the field testified in Trenton.

Last day at the NJ League of Municipalities. Y staff visiting the vendors.

Proud to testify on this important topic. The child care crunch in NJ has serious impact on our economy and workforce.
