DCAAP was excited to host Dr. Anthony Fauci as the keynote speaker for our May 8th Spring Symposium on The Power of Prevention: The Past and Future of Pediatric Vaccinations. Dr. Fauci reminded “Much Accomplished, More to Do.”

We are proud to have supported and testified on behalf of this act lead by @HeartOfGWR

@Under3DC wants every councilmember to support the #childcare Pay Equity Fund emergency legislation that the @CouncilofDC will vote on Tuesday. ✨✨✨ It limits educator pay cuts as much as possible and prioritizes equity. But educator pay cuts should never have happened. 1/2

youtu.be/aS3GQ-rxOOE?si… If we don't act, we all lose. The Mayor cut the PEF. The council is suggesting partial funding. Early childhood educators and the families and children deserve the full restoration of the funds. @FundPEF @dccouncilbudget @councilofdc @ChmnMendelson

The @CouncilofDC's consequential budget vote TOMORROW will determine the future of #washingtondc #childcare. Some have been full-throated in their support of the Pay Equity Fund. We’re sharing highlights of their remarks starting w/ @CMCHenderson wusa9.com/article/entert… #Under3DC

After a year of strategic partnership building incl @GeorgetownJJI @OSSE @DCChildrensLaw @MikvaChallenge @BainumFdn the DCAAP launches "Prescription for the District," #Rx4DC, taking a proactive stance on preventing violence in DC's youth. Thank you to all who have participated.

I’m not just standing in solidarity with our early childhood educators, but I'm in the fight — for our children, our educators, and our families. I'm moved by the sea of people in front of the Wilson Building calling on the Council to protect this program.

“It’s time for the wealthy to pay their fair share… #WashingtonDC should be taxing capital gains… and multi-million $ homes… now THAT would be fair.” -Anne Gunderson, Policy Analyst, @DCFPI

Pay equity isn’t the only thing on the dais today @CouncilofDC. Insufficient language access is too. Roughly half of today's hearing attendees are Spanish-speaking and language accommodations are nonexistent. Language access in #childcare is critical for racial justice. #Under3DC

CentroNía community 📢📢 We & @Under3DC need your help! The Mayor of DC has proposed cutting funding for childcare, this could affect many #earlychildhoodeducators like our own! Help us by telling the DC Council to stop these proposed cuts! Read the flyer below for more info!

Despite calling for “shared sacrifice” in a time of budget constraints, @MayorBowser's proposed FY25 budget demands the biggest sacrifices from DC’s lowest income residents while prioritizing the wealthiest businesses. dcfpi.org/all/unshared-s…

.@Under3DC delivered a postcard today from Bava, a constituent (and former neighbor) of @AnitaBondsDC! They asked the CM to reverse all cuts to child care. They have a child in @CommuniKidsPS who might lose their favorite early educator due to pay cuts. #DefendPEF #WashingtonDC

Support Pay Equity for Early Childhood Educators. Here's what you can do - let the DC Council hear you! @Under3DC

The fight against the Mayor’s move to defund DC child care and gut wages for early childhood educators is on. #ProtectPEF
