Early educators are getting a raise after the Board of Early Education and Care voted Wednesday for a $20 million rate increase to be put toward improved programming and higher salaries for teachers and staff, according to the Baker administration.

The funding was approved by the Legislature as part of the fiscal 2020 budget signed by Gov. Charlie Baker in July, and allows for a 3.52% increase in the daily reimbursement rates for state-subsidized child care programs.
