The tables are set, the AV is working, and the rains have stopped. We’re ready for an engaging morning symposium to craft community solutions to our child care shortage!

“This study gives us the data we need to both understand the scope of the problem and take action…” Nancy Magee, County Superintendent of Schools

Child care shortage persists in San Mateo County, new report finds There are still great unmet needs for infant and toddler care, but preschool level care is improving in San Mateo County, according to a new report from the San Mateo County Office of Education.

If you visit the San Mateo County Historical Association, you can learn about Gladys and Elbert Norton who moved to San Mateo in 1947 to find better opportunities. Gladys started a daycare operation at their home as a way to provide income for her family while raising her own young children. She was a licensed provider and took care of 10-15 kids at a time, from toddlers to high school age. Women of color have been the backbone of childcare, always. This Black History Month, we need to prioritize childcare. It is a matter of equity.

So excited this webinar is being offered again for 2023!
