Solving the summer child care crisis requires more public funding to reduce costs and increase slots, addressing parental barriers like job schedule misalignment and transportation.
A Gallup poll revealed that almost half of parents wished for more summer program participation for their children, primarily due to cost.
For decades, the struggle for accessible summer child care has seen missed opportunities for progress, despite ongoing demands from parents for more robust support.
Recent efforts at local and state levels highlight the effectiveness of government action in expanding access to summer care, presenting a hopeful turnaround.
