The Best Starts for Kids Child Care Wage Boost Pilot will study how government investments can benefit the child care sector, workers, families, and the community.
The pilot will invest over $25 million in additional compensation to an enrolled cohort of child care workers through 2027.
As part of that work, the pilot will have a work group that will support the development of the pilot, research, and seek to drive systemic change. The work group will be composed of diverse workers, providers, partners, and key stakeholders connected to the child care sector. Applications for the work group are now open.

Time commitment
Work group members will commit to participating in monthly meetings (mostly virtually), and will receive compensation for their participation.
