It’s Been a Year. It’s Been a YEAR.
Tasha Booker, CEO, Action for Children
It’s been a year.
And if I’m being honest—it’s been a YEAR.
My first year as CEO of Action for Children has unfolded during a time when the ground beneath families, child care professionals, and nonprofits has felt unstable. Funding cliffs. Workforce shortages. Rising costs. Policy uncertainty. Parents trying to do everything right and still feel like the math never adds up. Providers holding classrooms together with equal parts dedication and duct tape. Nonprofits being asked to help and serve more of our community with significantly less resources.
So, yes. It’s been a year.
What a privilege it has been to step into this role during such a defining moment.
