Washington Invests in Child Care

Washington just poured $5.6 million into 37 child care centers across 26 cities and 12 counties to keep doors open and upgrade facilities. Part of the Early Learning Facilities Program, this funding addresses a massive need—with hundreds of providers requesting over $270 million. Lawmakers added extra funds to help more projects, including spots in King, Pierce, Lake Tapps, and Tacoma. Designed to support expansion, remodeling, and new builds for state-recognized providers, this investment is vital for preserving critical early learning services and nurturing our youngest generation.
