Vermont's Child
Care Crisis
AND WHY IT MATTERS
Even before the pandemic, 3 out of 5 of Vermont’s youngest children did not have access to the care they needed. COVID-19 has only exacerbated already pressing challenges for families and early childhood educators. Without equitable access to a high-quality and affordable child care system, Vermont cannot fully recover and grow its workforce, support young families, or set its youngest residents up for future success in school, relationships, work, and life.
Our vision is a Vermont in which all children have equitable access to the early childhood education opportunities they need for a strong start in life.
We Can Transform
Child Care
WHEN WE WORK TOGETHER
Through policy change, people power, and programs innovation, together we can create a child care system that centers equity, affordability, and quality so that families can find child care in their communities that meets their needs, that values and compensates early childhood educators for their essential work, and enables Vermont's communities, businesses, and economy to grow and thrive.
