SUMMARY:Child care for all summit 2.0
DESCRIPTION:Come together with child care advocates\, parents\, early childhood educators\, and community leaders from across Canada for a powerful opportunity to connect\, reflect\, and take collective action toward a more inclusive and equitable early learning and child care system.  \nThis two-day summit will offer space for deep conversation\, collaboration\, and learning\, with a focus on the intersectional barriers faced by those historically excluded from Canada’s formal child care systems — including Black\, racialized\, immigrant and refugee families\, gender-diverse parents\, parents with disabilities\, and parents of children with disabilities. These communities\, often overlooked in child care policy and planning\, will be at the center of this convening.  \nOur collective goal is to strengthen a diverse and feminist child care movement that centers lived experience\, addresses systemic barriers\, and drives forward the vision of $10-a-day child care for all.  \nWhat to expect \nOver two days\, participants will:  \n\nDeepen their understanding of systemic gaps in child care policy and provision\nExplore solutions and grassroots strategies to advance equity in child care\nStrengthen networks and partnerships across movements and regions\nStrengthen the tools\, skills\, and momentum needed to advocate effectively in their communities and engaging equity-seeking groups.\n\nHeld during the Canada-wide Days of Action for Early Learning and Child Care\, this summit is both a celebration of progress and call to action. It is an opportunity to align our visions\, share knowledge\, and take action toward a child care system that works for all families  \nWHO SHOULD APPLY? \nWhether you’re a parent\, early childhood educator\, advocate\, community leader\, or simply passionate about equitable access to early learning and child care\, this summit is for you! We welcome those with varying levels of experience in child care advocacy — whether you’re new to the field or a seasoned advocate\, your voice matters.  \nCome be part of this important movement\, learn\, and help shape the future of early learning and child care in Canada!  \nWe are committed to justice\, equity\, diversity\, and inclusion. In alignment with these principles\, bursaries are available for participants who need financial support to cover the costs of accommodations and transportation.   \nAttend here!
