Email [email protected]. 2025 Was a Success Thanks to Our Amazing Partners!Last year, 50+ statewide and community partners, family child care providers and parents advocated in Sacramento for raising child care rates, strengthening critical safety net programs and lifting up the needs of whole families. Over 130 attendees heard from legislative champions committed to strengthening our safety net programs, protecting the progress and honoring the promises of the last legislative sessions, and building up supportive services in the 2025-26 legislative session. After our morning program, our coalition held 70+ meetings with legislators and their staff on the importance of resourcing programs that help families secure basic services such as child care, food, housing, and mental health, ultimately helping families become self-sufficient and break the cycle of poverty.
