Tasha Booker, CEO, Action for Children
If my first message to you was about listening, this one is about what I’m hearing, and how it’s shaping where we go next.
Over the past few months, I’ve spent time with parents, child care professionals, business leaders, and community partners across central Ohio. And while every conversation is different, a few themes continue to rise to the surface. Families are doing everything they can and still struggling to find care that works for their lives and budgets. Child care professionals remain deeply committed, but are navigating burnout, staffing shortages, and unsustainable wages. And increasingly, employers are recognizing that child care challenges are workforce challenges.
