Child Care for NC: United for Change is designed to help child care providers, parents, businesses and community leaders stand together to tell the NC General Assembly that we are united for much-needed change and investment in child care in our state. Our child care system is gravely underfunded, an urgent crisis that calls for urgent action. It has never been more important to show our collective advocacy strength.

We hope that you will make every effort to join us at Carrier Park in Asheville, NC on April 20th at 10am. This event is held in concert with the statewide day of action. We encourage families, child care providers, and business leaders to join us and advocate for NC's youngest learners. The more individuals who can show up to voice their support for child care, the better!

Bring your strollers for a march around the velodrome in the park in support of child care funding. There will be kids' activities and advocacy opportunities for all. Please wear PURPLE to show our solidarity with each other and early childhood advocates across North Carolina.
