Strong Jobs for Early Childhood Workers are Key to Child Care Quality
Tuesday, April 14, 2026 at 12:00 to 01:30 PM

NOTE: This program has been moved to April 14, 2026 from 12:00 - 1:30 PM ET.

The child care and preschool system is vital to the stability of the labor force and economy, and yet the entire system is balanced on the passion of women who work in child care because they delight in children and clearly understand they are contributing to the future - but experience employment in the sector as underappreciated and unsustainable. Through this program, we will share eye-opening learnings gleaned from an innovative model that connects the voices and perspectives of Baltimore child care professionals and caregivers with systems representatives who hold positional power.
