What is the YWCAs position on affordable, accessible, universal child care?
Child care is a national platform for YWCA; we are committed to the fact it needs to be affordable and accessible, and that quality child care is available for every woman who needs it, regardless of her income. This is a significant barrier to the independence of women, to women participating as contributing members in our community, and for them finding and keeping a job. Quality child care should not be restricted to only those who can afford it.
