This month’s Courageous Conversation will be hosted and moderated by our very own Marc Perry! Register in advance to participate.
March 2023 Courageous Conversation
Monday, March 27th
5:30 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.
Topic: Childcare Is a Social Justice Issue
Who can afford to send their children to daycare? Who are the workers, and can they afford to work there? How do our businesses and communities prioritize quality, affordable childcare? Childcare is an issue of gender, racial, and economic justice. Childcare as a social justice issue raises questions like these about unequal investment in early childhood development, the devaluation of the people who care for our children — many of whom are women of color — and the economic stress on the care workforce and our families the longer we fail to address the crisis. Join us as we discuss the intersectionality of childcare, race, and gender.
To register for the discussion (newly each month), please go to: https://us02web.zoom.us/…/tZYtd–pqT0vHdF3TDWX7MV8Pad…
An unmoderated 30 minutes will begin at 7 pm.

4) expect and accept non-closure.
