Let's give our kids from Parachute to Aspen a Strong Start so they can have a Bright Future
Commit to YES on 7A!
The Challenge
There simply isn’t enough childcare in our community, and the options that are available are too expensive for working families.
From Parachute to Aspen, only 44% of kids under the age of five have access to a licensed child care spot.
Families pay an average of $1,400 per month ($17,000 per year) for one kid.
Our Solution
This November, voters in Garfield, Pitkin and SW Eagle Counties will be asked to approve an Early Childhood Service District to support:
Tuition credits for families that reduce the cost of early childhood care and education
Provider grants that help create and grow more child care programs and increase wages for early childhood teachers
