Affordable and accessible day care plays an important role in that effort. We need our businesses to join the state to help meet the child care needs of our people.
Child care keeps people on the job.
We've seen statistics that show child care can be expensive for working people. It's clear we must help more people get the day care they need. Our businesses need to know an investment in child care pays big dividends. By providing additional dollars to strengthen child care, we're giving thousands of Floridians an important tool that they need to earn a paycheck. That's critical to our efforts to reform welfare.
