Join us for a panel presentation and discussion with real workers in the childcare industry. We will hear from them about their daily lives to learn how low wages and the lack of benefits affect their daily lives and decisions about employment. From this presentation, we hope you leave with some action steps and ideas on how to support the improvement of workforce conditions for child care workers. There will also be a question-and-answer portion of the presentation.
