Happy Friday!

We need your help. Can you please do what you can to encourage your CCCAP families to contact their legislators? Our state Senators and Representatives need to hear from families that CCCAP needs to be fixed so that more families can receive care and those that currently receive CCCAP funding maintain their benefit (some lose that if they miss their redetermination, change providers, etc.).

Do what you can to encourage families to send a letter to their legislator ASAP. There is a CCCAP Solutions bill coming out shortly and it would help firm up legislators convictions to hear from families that they need to get counties off of CCCAP freezes NOW!

FIND YOUR LEGISLATOR https://leg.colorado.gov/find-my-legislator

We ask you to do everything possible to encourage them to do that right away. If they walk away and promise...follow up. The bill hasn't been introduced yet but it's coming and when it does, legislators need to know already that it's something they need to support. Only that will keep Colorado families and programs from suffering!

That is not a hope or a hint; it is the statute. The only question left is whether the account th...

Every Rule Removes a Hedge Why the real cost of child care regulation is the options you are no longer allowed to offer A question came up recently in a conversation about Colorado child care rules. It went roughly like this: complying with Rules has an associated cost. What are the rules that cost you to comply with, and what is that cost? It is a fair question, and it deserves a real ...
