Child Care Aware of America urges incoming Administration and Congress to strengthen child care
Washington, D.C. – With news that the Associated Press has named Donald Trump the winner of the 2024 Presidential Election, Susan Gale Perry, Chief Executive Officer at Child Care Aware of America, issued the following statement:
Election results are in, and the work to make a strong child care system for everyone in America continues. 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.
