Investing Wisely in Our Youngest Generation Has a Lasting Impact
Take action to support families in Ohio by asking your elected officials to prioritize child tax credits and programs related to child care access and school readiness.
Today’s children are tomorrow’s neighbors, leaders and workers. For our region to flourish, we must make sure all our children reach their full potential, no matter their ZIP code.
Ohio's economic future depends on ensuring every child has a strong start in life. This means supporting working families, empowering parents and advocating for critical investments to:
- Expand access to affordable, quality child care for working families at or below 200% of the federal poverty level.
- Implement a refundable Child Tax Credit to support working parents with young children.
- Improve health outcomes for moms and babies by expanding evidence-based home visiting programs and community impact models.
- Strengthen early literacy and developmental support through increased funding for early intervention and evidence-based reading programs.
Your voice matters! You can help in two ways – just choose a tab at the top of the action center to the right.
- Call your Ohio representatives. It’s the best way for you to make an impact, because legislative staffs log these calls.
- Email your Ohio representatives.
Together, we can build a stronger future for our community.
