#Massachusetts is bending the stubborn #childcare curve from the 413 to the 617/508! For the first time in well over a decade, #earlychildhoodeducation is growing in #MA and its happening in ALL regions (Berkshires to Boston), ALL categories (#infants, #toddlers, #preschool, and after school/out-of-school time), and ALL provider types (#centerbased and #familychildcare). Yes, we are back to pre-pandemic licensed capacity levels, and that's good news, but let's not miss the headline: Massachusetts is making childcare a bona fide strength to support #childdevelopment, #workforcedevelopment, #communitydevelopment, and #economicdevelopment to make our state more affordable and competitive for #families. Let's keep it going!
