![]() Together, with early childhood educators, program directors, and coalition partners, Under 3 DC made 2022 an incredible year for the District’s early education sector. We saw implementation of the Pay Equity Fund, the first step in compensation parity with DC Public School teachers. The Pay Equity Fund also funds HealthCare4ChildCare, free, quality health insurance for employees of early education programs from the DC Health Benefit Exchange.
As we look back on the year, we express deep gratitude to the teachers, families of young children, and program leaders who are at the core. You bore a heavy weight this year, and we see you. If you haven’t yet, join us. Let’s continue transforming our city to ensure that all children receive an equitable, strong start. Together, we can do more.
