Resources to Support Budget Advocacy
To help advocates make the case for child care and early education investments, CLASP has created a web resource with information from CLASP and its partner organizations.
We have a lot of work to do to ensure that child care and Head Start investments are protected and maintained in both the FY 2011 and 2012 budgets. Between now and April 8, when the current Continuing Resolution (CR) for FY 2011 ends, CLASP is working with advocates across the country to contact members of Congress, write op-eds and develop relationships with new allies, such as local business leaders.
Among the resources you'll find:
- custom state fact sheets, which include information on child care and Head Start funding, children served in these programs, child poverty rates, and more
- budget news and anlaysis
- state profiles
... and more to help you make your case to your elected officials. Click the link below to go to the web resource.
