Pro-Kid – Generating the Power to Create Change for Kids is a podcast series intended to provide the time and space to take a deeper dive into the state budget and public policy priorities being advanced by Children Now to ensure all kids, especially kids of color, grow up in safe environments with parents or caregivers who are empowered to seek out and access any service needed to support the health and education of their child. 

In our inaugural episode of our Pro-Kid Podcast, Vice President of Policy and Programs, Vince Stewart spoke to colleague Stacy Lee, Chief Learning Officer and Senior Managing Director, Early Childhood. Their conversation covered California’s child care crisis, child care rate reform, its importance to kids and ways to get involved with the Children’s Movement campaign to support rate reform.
