A movement of parents, building the power to win.

New Yorkers United for Child Care is a movement of parents and would-be parents organizing to build the power to win free universal child care for all.

The cost of child care in New York is skyrocketing — and it’s pushing working families out of the city and state we love.

Child care costs in New York are unsustainable for working and middle-class families. We don’t think you should have to be rich — or leave New York — to raise a family.

We’re building a strong grassroots movement to change that: organizing parents into a powerful force, holding elected officials accountable, and fighting for the transformational change New York families deserve.
