Working Families Need Assistance with Paying for Childcare!

Created by A.S. on June 14, 2013

Working families are finding it increasingly more difficult to pay for childcare. Early childhood education is the cornerstone of a child's success and a nation's future. Working families face very difficult choices when it comes to covering the costs of daycare. Daycare costs are skyrocketing, with little to no assistance for the working class. Many families must choose between a salary and staying at home. Its not uncommon for a parent to be forced to leave jobs because its cheaper to be a stay at home parent, than hand your entire paycheck over to the daycare. There is nominal assistance for those living above the poverty level. Tax credits for childcare costs aren't enough; many can't come up with the cash to pay for it in the first place. We need help!! Our kids need your help!
