New Haven Childcare Rally on the Green

Location: New Haven Green: Across the City Hall, 165 Church St. New Haven, CT

On the morning of Wednesday, March 8, there will be a big rally and sing-a-long taking place on the New Haven Green from 8:00-9:00am, as a follow-up to last year’s Morning Without Child Care, which was very successful in pushing for early childhood funding in this year’s state budget. This year’s rally is being planned by Child Care for Connecticut’s Future, which is a coalition of parents, providers, and advocates working to secure strong, long-term investments in our state’s early learning system, and it is one of several rallies happening around the state on that day. March 8 is also International Women’s Day, which is significant since the vast majority of childcare workers are women.
