A free, virtual session from Stay Work Play.
Childcare is one of the most urgent workforce and economic issues facing New Hampshire today, and meaningful policy solutions are on the table right now.
Join Stay Work Play's Advocacy Network for a timely conversation focused on HB 1195, the “One State, One Code” childcare bill, which aims to remove unnecessary local barriers that delay or prevent new childcare programs from opening or expanding. By aligning municipal rules with state licensing standards, this legislation would help streamline approvals, increase childcare capacity, and support providers working to meet the overwhelming demand from families and employers.
This session will feature insights from:
Representative David Paige, prime sponsor of HB 1195
Natch Greyes, Vice President of Public Policy at the Business & Industry Association of NH
Together, we’ll explore:
• Why childcare infrastructure is a critical workforce issue• How local regulations impact providers and access to care
• What HB 1195 would change and why it matters now
• How advocates, employers, and community members can take action to help move solutions forward
Whether you are a childcare provider, employer, advocate, have a young family and are experiencing childcare obstacles or are simply passionate about building a stronger future for New Hampshire families, this meeting will equip you with the context, tools, and next steps to make your voice heard.
Because when childcare works, New Hampshire works.
