@WDINY's Child Care Subsidy Program assists families who make too much to qualify through the local DSS. If you live in Albany, Erie, Monroe, Oneida, Onondaga, Rensselaer, Saratoga or Schenectady County, our team is here to help you!

In 2020, overdose deaths in the U.S. increased by almost 30% & exceeded 93,000. I lost my brother to an overdose on November 9, 2020. Addiction ravaged his life & our family. An epidemic within a pandemic. We need to do better. cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr… via @CDCgov

“Federal lawmakers are currently considering investing in the nation’s #childcare infrastructure, as most other countries that can have already done. We subsidize those who raise our crops. Why is it so hard to subsidize those who help raise our children?” kansascity.com/opinion/editor…

@DanWuori ...and to think folks thought the problem would be solved by infiltrating the subsidy system with federal stimulus dollars. While this certainly assists working families, it does not solve the root cause of our crisis.

#Childcare centers across the country are struggling to find enough qualified educators, an obstacle that has some reducing enrollment and cutting hours. Owners say more teachers are quitting and fewer people than usual are applying for open positions.” reuters.com/article/usa-ec…
