A brighter future for children, families and the childcare providers is on the horizon.

Today, we’re celebrating a big step forward for San Diego’s children and families! With the passage of Measure B, our community has shown that they know investing in childcare means investing in all of us.

San Diego is Measuring up for all children, all families and our entire community!

So, what does this mean?

• More support for families: Childcare vouchers can help make quality care more affordable and accessible.
• More support for childcare professionals:Provider stipends can help strengthen the workforce and support the incredible people who care for our kids every day.
• More support for little ones: Investments in early childhood mental and behavioral health can help children get the support they need to thrive!

Remember! Childcare isn’t just about keeping kiddos busy while grown-ups work. It’s about building strong foundations, supporting working families, creating good jobs and making San Diego the  BEST place to work, live and raise a family.

Investment is the first step, but we are ready for the work ahead. Together, we CAN build a childcare system that works for all.

San Diego, you measured up. And our kiddos are all the better for it!
