Statement

$10-a-day spaces first for the kids who need them most. A place on a waitlist is not child care. As we create more spaces, we will prioritize $10-a-day spaces for the children and families with the fewest alternatives and highest need.

Overview

Direct newly allocated subsidized childcare spaces to low-income families and children facing acute childcare deficits.
