✨ Big News from New Mexico! ✨

Starting November 1st, all families in New Mexico will have access to free, universal child care...no income limits, no eligibility hoops.
Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham just made history by removing income requirements from the state's child care assistance program, officially making New Mexico the first state in the nation to guarantee free child care for every resident.

This game-changing policy means families can save an average of $12,000 per child each year, helping parents stay in the workforce, supporting early childhood education, and easing financial stress for countless households.

👏🏾 A major win for working families and caregivers everywhere. We hope the rest of the country is taking notes!!!
