State our Position

That’s why we need to do more to help make child care more affordable for families. It is good for healthy brain development in kids and good for economy.

Imagine working 60 hours a week to provide for your family, missing out on school plays and sports games. You work from sunrise to sundown to ensure the best future for your children. That’s the reality for so many Kansans right now. Families should be able to afford childcare without missing out on the big moments.
