These leaders are taking the time to learn more about the vital work early educators do every day to care for and teach our communities’ children. They agree: Options educators deserve fair pay, respect, and a real voice on the job.

“This pivotal workforce of childcare center workers, of which over 90% are women, are essential in meeting your mission and dedication to ensuring that children and families are supported through innovative and quality child development programs. It is imperative that they be adequately supported in order to carry out their important work.” — Supervisor Hilda Solis

When elected leaders stand with us, it shows the power of what we can achieve together.

Now it’s our turn to stand together and build a strong, united voice for all early educators.
