Home 9 Early Care and Education 9 Early Learning Coalition Calls for $40 million Increase in Child Care

The Early Learning Coalition is proposing a $40 million increase in child care to improve the quality of child care for 46,000 low-income children. The Coalition’s proposal indicates that “an investment of $40 million per yearly would partially restore the child care payments cut in recent years, and strengthen the sustainability of quality programs through the Wisconsin Shares program and the YoungStar program.”

Please see the complete policy statement here: High-Quality Child Care Prepares Children for School Success: Invest $40 million
