On Tuesday, May 12, early care and education providers, their staff, families, and community partners will come together to share their stories, uplift families, and show the strength of our numbers through coordinated program closures and a family and community-centered day of engagement at the Louisiana State Capitol.
Louisiana’s Day Without Child Care is part of the National Day Without Child Care, a coordinated nationwide movement elevating the essential role of early learning in our economy and communities, with coordinated efforts taking place across 27 states.
Louisiana’s Day Without Child Care is a provider-led, educator-led, parent-led, and business-led day of action demonstrating the essential role early care and education makes possible for Louisiana families, workforce, and economy — and what is at risk without sustained, long-term investment.
This day is about visibility, collective power, and ensuring decision-makers understand that child care is essential infrastructure for working families, businesses, and the future of our state.
Our Statewide Goal
Our goal is participation from at least 200 early learning centers and family child care homes across Louisiana.
Providers with multiple sites may include all centers they own or operate on this one form.
By participating, providers across Louisiana are showing:
What child care is
Why it matters
Why it must be protected and strengthened
Together, 200 centers strong, we are making child care visible.
Nothing about us, without us.
