HELPING TO LEVEL THE PLAYING FIELD FOR WORKING FAMILIES IN THE DC METRO AREA​​
Child Care Counts promotes economic mobility for low-income families by addressing child care needs. We provide direct assistance for child care costs of young children in the greater Washington DC area so parents can pursue better career opportunities.
