The San Diego County Board of Supervisors unanimously passed a childcare blueprint to allocate a remaining $2 million in American Rescue Plan funding to address San Diego’s lack of affordable childcare.
Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer from District 3, who proposed the plan, says that San Diego has a childcare crisis that is especially impacting low-income workers, single parents and parents who work unconventional schedules. A study conducted by the county found that there is a lack of childcare facilities in our region and that ones that do exist can oftentimes be very expensive for families or have very long waitlists.
The blueprint that was passed Tuesday would allocate $500,000 from American Rescue Plan funding to license new childcare facilities and upgrade infrastructure at existing facilities. The emphasis would be on what the County Board of Supervisors calls “childcare deserts” or areas in our region where there aren’t as many options.Sign up for NBC San Diego newsletters.
