Childrens Advocacy Alliance

The children's advocacy alliance has developed partnerships that promote high quality early childhood care and education and robust afterschool programs. We believe that to move the needle in education in nevada, we need to: 1. Promote access to high-quality, affordable, early learning and child- care opportunities for all children. 2. Promote business involvement in early learning through tax incentive programs that reward businesses that offer child care stipends for employees, site-based care, promotion and use of fsa programs, and others. 3. Increase child care subsidy eligibility to ensure that more working families can afford care and increase the state child care development fund contribution, including the use of current market rates to determine subsidy reimbursements. 4. Create alignment between all early childhood systems, including early childhood educators, health services providers, social services providers, and parents.

The children's advocacy alliance is committed to promoting long-term outcomes for youth by reducing pathways to the child welfare system and supporting youth in foster care. Caa is working to: 1. Increase foster youth transition supports and educational resources. 2. Build the collective voice of youth through support groups and civic engagement opportunities. 3. Collect data and conduct research on best practices to develop a comprehensive system for preventing child abuse and neglect and providing necessary care and services for children and families in the system.
