WHEDco on Why Strengthening Home-Based Child Care is Key for NY Families
Monday, 11 May, 2026

Many parents know the struggle of finding child care that is affordable, accessible and aligned with work schedules. Even with proposals to expand access towards universal childcare, the system remains complex and uneven, with many families relying on a patchwork of solutions. Davon Russell, President of WHEDco, discusses why home based child care must be central to efforts to increase access to childcare; a conversation based on his Op-Ed for Crain’s New York. In addition to building award-winning affordable housing, Bronx-based WHEDco provides early childhood and after-school programs, arts and cultural programming, access to healthy food, and small business support.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
