https://firstfocus.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Project2025-Nutrition.jpg800450Project 2025, the blueprint for a future Republican administration created by the conservative Heritage Foundation and partners, would do grave harm to the children and families who benefit from the programs under the Department of Health and Human Services, including early learning. This plan would eliminate high-quality, affordable child care slots at a time when there is a crisis in care across our country, harming children, their families, early childhood professionals, and our national economy. This document would limit choices for families and provides no new solutions to help children and families access care.
