Supporting our Early Childhood workers

Season #2

Roughly one in four children ages birth to 5 years are in childcare. There are also a significant number of children from 6 to 12 in childcare for before and after school services. These children are cared for by workers who are there to support the health and well-being of our youth. But they are poorly paid and now are seeing increasing demands for professional development, ranging from certificates to college degrees, with no possibility of increased wages. Listen to this podcast to understand what is going on in this field and where your help is needed.
