OUR MISSION
Uniting employers, care providers, and communities to remove every barrier to affordable, high-quality care.
THE CHALLENGE
Pennsylvania loses $6.65 billion annually due to childcare breakdowns.
Families spend $13,000–$15,000/year or more on childcare, far above affordability benchmarks.
Providers face over 3,000 unfilled positions and high turnover.
Employers experience significant recruitment and retention challenges tied to childcare instability.
A NEW OPPORTUNITY
Recent federal and state incentives create a once-in-a-generation opportunity to make childcare affordable and accessible:
Federal 45F Credit:
40–50% credit on qualified childcare expenditures
Pennsylvania Employer Child Care Contribution Credit:
30% state credit
Family Relief:
Federal CDCTC plus Pennsylvania’s 100% match
Together, these incentives can subsidize 70–80% of employer provided employee childcare investments.
