Feb. 22nd – Advocate for Child Care at the Capitol

Feb. 22nd – Advocate for Child Care at the Capitol

Child care providers who have questions and concerns about the administration of the Child Care Development Fund will have an opportunity to speak directly to their legislators on February 22, 2018 beginning at 10:00 AM on the second floor of the state Capitol Building in Jackson.

Please come and shine like the star you are!

Although child care providers have been anxiously awaiting the long overdue announcement of Mississippi’s new child care rates (federally mandated increases) expected to be announced at today’s SECAC meeting, the January 25th meeting has been canceled. (Click here.)

The next SECAC meeting is also scheduled for February 22, 2018.

MARK THIS IMPORTANT DATE!

In addition, attend the MECA Conference on February 17, 2018 in partnership with the Childcare Directors Network to learn more about the issues facing Mississippi’s child care industry and strengthen your voice by becoming a full, supporting, statewide member.

In the meantime, to raise very urgent concerns or to discuss low-income child care services with your Senator and Representative today, call the Capitol Switchboard and send a message in to them. Ask them to give you a call.

Capitol Switchboard:  (601)  359-3770
