Rachel Wilensky will present at Economic Policy Institute’s annual Economic Analysis and Research Network Conference (EARNCon)
On Thursday, September 12th, Rachel Wilensky, Senior Policy Analyst on the Child Care and Early Education team, will deliver opening remarks and moderate a panel discussion at the Economic Policy Institute’s annual Economic Analysis and Research Network Conference (EARNCon). The plenary on Advancing Equity in Child Care: State Progress in Expanding Access and Affordability will cover the work happening across states to strengthen the child care sector and address the inequities that make child care particularly inaccessible for people of color and people with low incomes. This session will also review the current federal landscape for child care and what needs to change to help families access the care they need.
