Cheers for Childcare
Every young child in NC deserves an opportunity to learn, grow, and succeed. But right now, our state’s child care system is in crisis. Parents can’t afford to pay more, programs can’t afford to stay open, & teachers can’t afford to work for such low wages. It’s time for urgent action. Come to the Pinhook on April 10th to learn how you can take immediate action and support the upcoming statewide child care mobilization. This is a family friendly event, so please come bring the whole family! We’ll have food and artmaking for the little ones and early childhood educators get a free drink!
