In part two of the Childcare Conversations advocacy series, Kate and Carrie focus on the vital role of advocacy in the early childhood profession, particularly in Texas. They stress that professionals are more than caretakers; they have a powerful voice to influence the childcare industry and policy. The duo provides practical advice on engaging with legislators, especially during Texas's off-season legislative periods, to foster relationships and discuss childcare issues. They suggest inviting legislators to events, using photo opportunities, and keeping them informed via mailing lists. Carrie also highlights the importance of researching legislators' interests to connect on a personal level and utilizing professional associations for advocacy support. The episode is a guide for early childhood professionals to effectively advocate for their industry in Texas.
