Power in Purpose - From Progress To Possibility: Mobilizing for Childcare Affordability in PA

We hope you'll join us for January's Power in Purpose webinar, From Progress To Possibility: Mobilizing for Childcare Affordability in PA. It will take place on Zoom at 12 p.m. on Thursday, January 29. Register now at bit.ly/popjan26

Pennsylvania families are being squeezed by a system where earning even slightly more than poverty level wages can mean losing vital childcare—while care for two young children now tops $27,000 a year. Join our webinar to hear advocates, legislators, and policy experts break down the state’s childcare affordability crisis and the solutions we can advance together.

Panelists:
• State Representative Eric Nelson (HD57-Westmoreland County)
• Kimberly Early, Senior Director of Public Policy and Advocacy, PA Association for the Education of Young Children
• Zaina Cahill, Early Childhood Education Policy Director, Children First
• Dr. Angela Reynolds, CEO, YWCA Greater Pittsburgh
• Latonta Godboldt, M.Ed., Director/Owner, The Urban Giving Tree LLC

Power in Purpose webinars bring together YWCAs from across the Commonwealth— YWCA Greater Pittsburgh, YWCA Carlile, YWCA Tri-County Area, YWCA Westmoreland, and YWCA Lancaster— to educate and inspire action around key issue areas impacting Pennsylvanians.
