Sharing on behalf of RAPAD Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) Alliance of Councils/The Future Care Project:
Right now, your region's childcare needs are invisible. Government data only counts children currently enrolled with an approved provider, not those on a waitlist and not the families in communities where no service exists at all.
The Regional Childcare Access Survey changes that. It takes about ten minutes, it's completely confidential and this first of its kind survey becomes the community verified evidence we're taking to government to make the invisible visible. It's delivered in partnership with the RAPAD ECEC Alliance, ahead of the Blackall Action Forum this 3rd and 4th August where the outcomes of this survey will be made public.
