Every family in Southeastern Connecticut deserves access to affordable, high-quality care.
With over 40 partner organizations the SECT Childcare Collective is addressing our regional childcare needs by focusing on:
- Increasing access to early care
- Creating sustainable innovations
- Enhancing and strengthening the early care and education workforce
When we are focused on creating and sustaining a healthy early care & education system:
- Families have increased access to high-quality, affordable childcare so they can work and build financial stability.
- Businesses have a more vibrant childcare sector to enable a stable workforce, helping the local economy.
- Children are better prepared for school, leading to more opportunities in life and safeguarding the success of the future workforce.
