Connecting Communities: Two Sides of One Child Care Dilemma

This webinar is now available to watch on-demand.

Access to quality early childhood education (ECE) is critical to the well-being of communities and the economy. The pandemic further exposed existing issues, including how a lack of access to reliable and affordable childcare affects the parental workforce, yet also how financing challenges strain provider profitability.

During this session, attendees will hear from the Federal Reserve about recent research that explores cost and affordability challenges, especially for workers needing nontraditional hours of care and financial constraints on the provider side. The event will also speak to innovative solutions to help attract and retain ECE workers and sustain quality programs. Hear from parents and experts as they share their perspectives on these issues, how they’ve experienced challenges, and insights on community solutions.
