In this presentation, Dagney Faulk presents the findings of a research brief examining (1) the relationship between child care availability and the level of women’s participation in the workforce, and (2) the underlying financial factors that affect the demand for child care services and the supply of child care workers in Indiana.
Jeri McCorkle provides an overview of the Training, Resource, and Advocacy Connector (TRAC) program that supports early care and learning efforts in ECI. TRAC is working to advance early care and learning, its professional workforce, communities, and economic development.
