Building a stronger Nebraska through child care.

Nebraska’s competitiveness depends on affordable, quality child care.

Child Care Can is a statewide initiative bringing together families, child care providers, businesses, community leaders, educators, and organizations around one shared belief: affordable, quality child care is one of the foundations of a strong Nebraska.

When children have quality early learning, parents can work, businesses can grow, providers can thrive, and communities become stronger.

Together, we’re building a statewide movement and advancing practical solutions that expand access to affordable, quality child care across Nebraska.

Affordable, quality child care is one of the foundations of a strong Nebraska.
