2026 Child Care Advocacy Day

New York State is facing a pivotal moment for child care and we invite you to join us at our annual Advocacy Day in Albany for one day, one voice, and one demand: universal child care for ALLTogether, we will continue to call on legislators to prioritize strategic policies and robust investments that strengthen the state’s child care system.

What is Advocacy Day?

Every year, hundreds of child care advocates unite in Albany to share with legislators 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.
