Working families in New York City face significant challenges in accessing safe and affordable childcare. The city's early childhood education programs like 3-K and Pre-K can help, but many seats remain vacant or do not meet community needs. The City Council is taking steps to address these issues by implementing budgetary changes, allocating funds, and creating a working group to better serve parents. The goal is to ensure that every district has filled seats, providing educational opportunities for children and support for families in need.
We have repeatedly proposed fixes through dedicated funding in our budget negotiations with the mayor's administration and smart policy changes.
Every year, our goal is to have every single seat filled in every district from Woodlawn to Far Rockaway, and for every family who wants a seat to receive an offer.
