Urgent: Tell the State of Missouri to Invest in Kids

Missouri’s child care crisis impacts children and families and hurts Missouri’s workers, employers, and economy. Child care is too often inaccessible or unaffordable. Kids Win Missouri has collaborated with business community partners, child care providers, and families to develop recommendations for the State to address this crisis. The recommendations would stabilize the industry and provide meaningful relief to workers and providers.

The recommendations would:

• Create stability for families, employers and child care providers through increased state investment in proven grants, subsidies and provider incentives
• Expand access to state child care subsidies for working families and child care workers
