Building Childcare for All

A statewide movement of families, early educators, childcare providers, businesses, community organizations, and neighbors working together to transform childcare in Minnesota.

Our Story

Childcare keeps Minnesota working. But today, our childcare system isn’t working for Minnesotans.

Minnesota families face some of the highest childcare costs in the country, while the people who care for our children can barely afford to care for their own. Programs are closing, waitlists are growing, parents are leaving the workforce, and early educators are leaving the profession they love because they can’t afford to stay.

For years, Minnesotans have organized to strengthen childcare. Together, we’ve won historic investments and built new systems to better support families and providers. These victories have shown us what’s possible, and what’s still needed: a bold statewide solution that matches the scale of our childcare crisis.

That’s why we launched our Childcare for All campaign. We’re building the people power needed to win universal childcare system that works for every family, every child, and every early educator.
