When preschoolers leave family child care for other options, these small business owners are moved into poverty.

As human beings we need to assess whether anger has any value - it destroys our peace of mind. Compassion, on the other hand, brings optimism and hope.

[First 5 Association @First5Assoc]

Check out our @mercnews oped with @ChildrenNow and @AP_California on the risk that CA kids will be undercounted in the 2020 census-- and thus shortchanged on vital funding for programs that help kids thrive.

@priskaneely @KPCC @mclemoremr @dr_tonyiton @ReportingHealth Thank you for saying this. I'm tired of research giving stats about race/ethnicity. I've started to write about this in the child welfare area but it doesn't seem to resonate with people ... yet. We need to keep the conversation going. Thank you.

[Priska Neely @priskaneely]

Black babies in the US are twice as likely as white babies to die in their first year of life. What's behind this persistent gap? It's racism, not race.
