Investing in early childhood education is one of the
to make for businesses and Louisiana’s future! ○ Quality Child Care= Work Productivity. Child care is an economic driver. Working families need quality, reliable care for their children. These children are our future workforce.
○ School Readiness Tax Credit not only protected, but funding increased. Senator J.P. Morrell allocated an additional $5 million in the 2017 Legislative session to continue to increase the quality of early education. ○ Businesses can direct where they want their tax dollars to go. LA Statute R.S. 47:6107 allows On Track by 5 Alliance, along with six other CCR&Rs across the state, to be eligible to receive the funds. School Readiness Tax Credits enable business to turn their tax liability into a investment to improve the quality of childhood experiences. For each LA Tax ID
number, $5000 can be given in the name of School Readiness Tax Credits. A business with multiple LLCs under their umbrella can give $5000 per LLC.
