~ In the wake of the devastating wildfires that swept through Los Angeles, Governor Gavin Newsom has taken action to support childcare providers who have been impacted by the disaster. On February 11, 2025, Governor Newsom issued an executive order directing the Department of Social Services and the California Employment Development Department (EDD) to reach out to childcare programs and providers whose facilities have not yet reopened due to the fires.
The executive order also ensures that these individuals are aware of their potential eligibility for Disaster Unemployment Assistance and provides support in completing the application process. This move aims to alleviate some of the financial burden faced by these providers as they work to rebuild their businesses.
Governor Newsom emphasized the importance of supporting childcare providers during this difficult time, stating, "Caregiving isn't just a service - it's the infrastructure we all need to go to work." He also acknowledged that many childcare providers are women and highlighted their crucial role in both supporting families and contributing to the larger economy.
First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom echoed this sentiment, emphasizing that ensuring these providers can provide for their own families is essential for their recovery and for supporting the overall economy.
