Summary
This 39-month project will address organizational capacity needs to allow Child Care Now (Childcare Advocacy Association of Canada) to continue promoting social and systemic change towards gender equality. The focus of the project will be the establishment of childcare coalitions and networks in regions in Canada that currently lack them so as to be in a better position to advocate for the kind of evidence-based public childcare policy measures that will lead to enhanced economic security for women. Activities will include an analysis and mapping of the current state of childcare advocacy in Canada to identify the strategic targets and priorities of the project; and the development of tools, mechanisms, training, and other resources to support new and existing networks, partnerships, and coalitions. The project would help Child Care Now develop and implement sustainability strategies, including long-term planning and the diversification of its funding base.
A supplement of $149,570 was granted to develop a comprehensive cross-Canada coordinated childcare advocacy strategy, as well as a supporting implementation plan, to ensure equitable access to high quality and inclusive early learning and childcare.

Description (French)
Ce projet de 39 mois vise à répondre aux besoins en matière de capacité organisationnelle pour permettre à Un Enfant Une Place (Association canadienne pour la promotion des services de garde à l’enfance) de continuer à promouvoir le changement systémique et social menant à l’égalité des genres. Le projet a pour objet d’établir des coalitions et des réseaux de services de garde dans les régions du Canada qui en manquent actuellement, de façon à ce qu’elles soient mieux placées pour promouvoir le type de mesures stratégiques fondées sur des données probantes en matière de services publics de garde d’enfants qui améliorera la sécurité économique des femmes. Les activités comprennent une analyse et une description de l’état actuel de la promotion des services de garde à l’enfance au Canada afin d’identifier les cibles et les priorités stratégiques du projet, ainsi que la mise au point d’outils, de mécanismes, d’une formation et d’autres ressources qui soutiennent les réseaux, les partenariats et les coalitions nouveaux et existants. Le projet aiderait l’organisme Un Enfant Une Place à concevoir et à mettre en œuvre des stratégies de viabilité, y compris la planification à long terme et la diversification de sa base de financement.
Afin d'assurer un accès équitable à des services d'apprentissage et de garde des jeunes enfants inclusifs et de haute qualité, un supplément de 149 570 $ a été accordé pour développer une stratégie globale de défense des services de garde d'enfants coordonnée à travers le Canada, accompagnée d'un plan de mise en œuvre.
