Timberland Regional Library and the Capital STEM Alliance at ESD113 welcome you to our third Moving Forward Together virtual summit on Thursday, June 6, 2024, from 4:30-6:00 pm. Our focus will be on childcare – an issue that affects employers, families, educators, and communities throughout the Capital region.
Our Keynote speaker, Gary Burris of the Child Care Action Council, will kick off the event, followed by a panel discussion around family-friendly workplaces, child care recruitment and retention, and universal access for families. Attendees will come away with information about:
Childcare deserts and how they affect working families
Childcare provider training, recruitment and retention issues
How family-friendly workplaces can contribute to employee retention and a positive culture
We hope you will join us for this informative event!
