Advocacy

ACA Qld and ACA National represent our valued members on key issues impacting the accessibility, sustainability, quality and affordability of early learning (childcare) services. We are actively involved in advocating for political reform to improve outcomes for children, families, early childhood educators/teachers, and service providers while reducing unnecessary regulatory burden. We provide a public voice for early learning services through the media, and promote the latest world research into policies and practices.

We present submissions to government to provide an evidence-based researched opinion for improving the accessibility, affordability and quality of early learning services. 

We perform research and conduct surveys to ensure the content of our submissions are well informed, based on data that we have collected. Our submissions provide a reliable and informed voice to the early childhood education and care sector.
