Great news on federal funding for early childhood! On February 3, Congress passed a crucial funding bill that preserves key budget increases for the Child Care Development Block Grant (CCDBG) and Head Start and Early Head Start. Specifically:

• $8.8 billion for the Child Care and Development Block Grant, an increase of $85 million above FY25. ($8.746 billion)
• $12.4 billion for Head Start, an increase of $85 million above FY25. ($12.72 billion)

Two programs that were slated for elimination in the original House version maintain level funding:
• $315 million for Preschool Development Grant
• $75 million for Child Care Access Means Parents in School

February is here, love is in the air—and that means is right around the corner! ❤️

On February 13, we’re spreading the love and sharing all the reasons why afterschool is close to our hearts. Whether you’re an afterschool provider who loves showing up every day, a parent whose child has a safe place to learn and play, or an afterschool alum whose program helped shape who you are today—everyone’s invited. 💌
