Yes, We Can (And Should) Prioritize Policies That Invest in Childcare

I interviewed journalist Rebecca Gale who has covered childcare extensively, and she tells us what's working in Vermont.

I was fortunate to score some time with Rebecca Gale, a reporter and writer on caregiving, child care, parenting, and policy. Rebecca is a staff writer at Better Life Lab at New America and author of her own substack It Doesn’t Have to Be This Hard (which I HIGHLY recommend you subscribe to).

I hope you enjoy learning about policies that are working to make childcare more affordable that ALSO benefit caregivers. Please think about how YOU can advocate within your community, your state, and our country to remind our representatives that they are accountable to us and this is an issue that matters to us.

I hope this inspires you to take action! And if you are in New Jersey, PLEASE sign and share this petition to make childcare costs a key issue in our state elections this year!
