Advocacy is Action

August Advocacy is Action is NAFCC’s annual campaign to mobilize family child care educators, allies, and advocates during the Congressional August recess. This is a time when members of Congress return to their home districts, which creates a powerful opportunity to elevate the voices of family child care directly in communities.

Voices of Family Child Care: In Their Own Words

In Their Own Words is a national storytelling campaign by NAFCC that spotlights real family child care educators and the powerful ways they are shaping the future of early care and education. These stories aren’t scripted—they’re lived. They reveal the heart, challenge, resilience, and impact behind home-based child care.
