Connecticut Representative Kate Farrar Champions Legislation to Establish the Early Childhood Education Endowment Fund

Idea Category: Education

Connecticut Representative Kate Farrar championed a landmark legislation package to establish the Early Childhood Education Endowment fund. Heralded as a “national model,” the package ensures free childcare for income-eligible families and caps costs at 7% for those with higher incomes. Additional provisions will improve facilities in underserved areas, raise educator compensation, and centralize enrollment processes through a digital portal. “That is true relief for the families of Connecticut,” Farrar said.
