Earlier this week, Secretary Tutwiler was thrilled to celebrate $8.5 million in capital grants for early education and care providers like East Boston Social Centers. These grants allow providers to update their indoor and outdoor spaces to provide modern, healthy, safe, and inclusive environments where our kids learn, play, and grow!

We are beyond grateful for this transformational grant award that will provide critical safety and security enhancements for our youth services programs. Thank you to Secretary Patrick Tutwiler, PhD, Commissioner Amy Kershaw, Massachusetts Department of Early Education and Care and rest of partners involved in supporting this project!!!
This year's Early Education Capital Grants were announced today at the East Boston Social Centers in the presence of Secretary Tutwiler, Commissioner Kershaw, Senator DiDomenico, Rep Madaro, various community partners, and the grantees. A total of $8.5 Million in new child care capital awards were granted to 20 organizations across the Commonwealth to improve the facilities so that children continue to learn, play, and grow. The Alliance was present to cheer for the YMCA of Greater Boston, YMCA of Central Massachusetts, and Greater Holyoke YMCA who received this year's award. We are grateful for this investment in the early education field and are looking forward to more meaningful partnerships in the future.

At East Boston Social Centers, Commissioner Kershaw and Secretary Tutwiler announced that 20 organizations across Massachusetts are being awarded $8.5 million in capital funding to renovate early education and out-of-school time program facilities. Thanks for joining us, Director of Outdoor Recreation Paul Jahnige, Senator Sal DiDomenico, and Rep. Adrian Madaro! This investment will support renovation projects to expand capacity and improve the indoor and outdoor quality and accessibility of learning environments for children, ensuring they have safe, healthy, inclusive, and developmentally appropriate spaces to learn, play, and grow. As part of the Administration's whole-of-government approach to addressing climate change, and in collaboration with the Climate Office, projects were prioritized that focused on clean energy and decarbonization. Projects that included security enhancements to prevent and respond to potential threats, such as active shooters and installation of security cameras and access control systems, were also prioritized.

“I am grateful for our partnership with the federal government and the strong alignment with the Biden-Harris Administration’s commitment to build a more accessible, modern, affordable, and equitable child care system that includes the critical role of our Head Start programs. With sufficient funding available, these changes will have a meaningful impact on Head Start programs in our state, the families and children they serve, and our entire child care system.” - Commissioner Kershaw The Healey-Driscoll Administration applauds the Biden-Harris Administration’s final Head Start rule: https://lnkd.in/esWyS6g4 #HeadStart #News #ChildCare

“It was an honor to join Governor Healey today as she signed the FutureTech Act. The administration has made transformative changes to child care financial assistance over the last year and a half that this investment will build upon, accelerating our efforts to create a safe, multilingual, mobile-friendly and simpler technology system. This is a win for children, families, and our child care providers.” - AK Learn more about the FutureTech Act: https://lnkd.in/dspgJsjZ
