\u201cFor too long, families were promised universal 3-K but offered seats miles away \u2014 forcing them to pay out of pocket for child care or leave the city,\u201d said\u00a0Mamdani said. \u201cToday we\u2019re making a new commitment: government can deliver real relief from the affordability crisis. By making 3-K truly universal, we\u2019re building a city where every New Yorker can afford to raise a family.\u201d<\/p>\n
Families who have already applied to 3-K do not need to take any action at this time. As new programs are confirmed and added to MySchools, NYC Public Schools will notify families in those communities. Families may update their applications to include newly available programs until April 24.<\/p>\n
\u201cFree 3-K is an essential service for New Yorkers, providing young ones with the foundation for success throughout their academic careers,\u201d said Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso.\u00a0<\/p>\n
