The American people have resoundingly called for—both before and during the election cycle—affordable, accessible, quality child care solutions.   Child Care Aware of America is committed to leading and championing progress happening across America toward equitable, high-quality child care that gives children a great start and helps families work, our economy grow, and communities prosper. We look forward to getting to work with our partners, the new Administration, and Congress on real-world solutions for child care. When child care wins, everyone wins.  *Child Care Aware® of America (CCAoA) is the only national organization that supports every part of the child care system. Together with an on-the-ground network of child care resource and referral (CCR&R) organizations working in states and communities, CCAoA provides research that drives effective practice and policy, builds strong child care programs and professionals, helps families find and afford quality child care, delivers thought leadership to the military and direct service to its families, works with employers on child care solutions, and provides a real-world understanding of what works and what doesn’t to spur policymakers into action and help them build solutions. Together we make America child care strong—and that makes everyone stronger.   *      Topics: [Press Release](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/tag/press-release), [Press](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/tag/press) ### Written by [CCAoA](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/author/ccaoa) Previous Post [![Statement on the end of federal relief funding for child care](https://info.childcareaware.org/hubfs/on-a-holiday-a-woman-and-her-two-little-daughters-2024-08-20-01-18-28-utc.jpg) ](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/statement-on-the-end-of-federal-relief-funding-for-child-care) [Statement on the end of federal relief funding for child care](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/statement-on-the-end-of-federal-relief-funding-for-child-care) Next Post [Here's where voters approved a tax hike to help pay for child care](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/heres-where-voters-approved-a-tax-hike-to-help-pay-for-child-care) ### Types of Media - [Media Mention (94)](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/tag/media-mention) - [News (7)](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/tag/news) - [Policy & Advocacy (5)](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/tag/policy-advocacy) - [Press (53)](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/tag/press) - [Press Release (42)](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/tag/press-release) - [Provider Appreciation Day 2025 (1)](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/tag/provider-appreciation-day-2025) - [Workforce (1)](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/tag/workforce) [See all](https://info.childcareaware.org/media/child-care-aware-of-america-urges-incoming-administration-and-congress-to-strengthen-child-care#) ** ![CCA Logo/Homepage link](https://www.childcareaware.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/logo-footer.png)![CCA Logo/Homepage link](https://www.childcareaware.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/logo-footer.png) ** Military Families × Close Panel ** ### Military Families × Close Panel ** × Close Panel
