Parents

Describe the challenge you want to address:

Expensive day care for workign parents, hard to afford living costs, work and at the same time have money for day/child care!

What is the solution to the challenge?

City funds to lower day care costs or to provide longer parental leave. We certainly should have more funding for paid maternal leave and longer duration 3-6 months is not enough. Our system doesn't support families and raising children
