Twenty years ago our economic and workforce development groups discussed the growing challenge in our workforce and science showed us that high-quality, accessible, affordable childcare was crucial for strong workforces. Twenty years later we find ourselves having the same conversation and the science hasn't changed.
Join us for a panel discussion on "The Business Case for Childcare; why quality, accessible, affordable childcare is critical for our region’s success" We'll discuss challenges and opportunities, pre- and post-COVID. Kathy Waugh, YWCA, Cassandra Coffee Morelock, SWVA United Way Early Childhood Initiative and others will join this conversation. 1 to 1.5 hours Register HERE for this event.
