Dear Jessica,


Are you ready for election day? It's the final countdown and tomorrow is the last day to make your voice heard! Voting is an important tool to impact the child care issues that affect us most; like raising livable wages for providers, and expanding access for families. We must take this opportunity to support candidates who value our lives, our profession and our communities.

 

To help you and the families you serve prepare to vote, we’ve created a checklist that you can find on our Voter Resource Page. Feel free to reach out to an AOK staff member with any questions or needs that may arise. We are here to support you in every way that we can and we hope you join us on this critical day of action as a family child care voter.


Standing with you in solidarity,

The All Our Kin Team
