County Legislative Agendas and Updates – Each year the Los Angeles County Child Care Planning Committee (Planning Committee) and the Policy Roundtable for Child Care (Roundtable) prepare a public policy platform that reflects current and emerging policy issues in early care and education.  The public policy platform items form the basis for the County’s State Legislative Agenda items relating to “child care and child development” and contributes to items on early care and education built into the County’s Federal Agenda.  Click on the link to access the Planning Committee and Roundtable’s Public Policy Platform and the County’s State and Federal Agendas for the current legislative session.
