Welcome to the Empire State Campaign for Child Care
We are a statewide coalition of parents, child care educators, and advocates who believe that every family in New York State deserves high-quality, universal child care and that every child care educator deserves to earn a thriving wage.
Child care providers are the backbone of our communities—and yet, many still earn poverty-level wages. It’s time to change that.
Advocacy Day 2026!
Registration is now closed.
The momentum for universal child care is building across the nation and we need YOU to help us reach the tipping point where policymakers can no longer delay, deflect, or ignore the urgent need for universal child care and permanent compensation funding for the child care workforce.
Join us for one day. One voice. One demand: Universal child care for ALL New York families!
