Over the last 18 months, Indiana’s early childhood education providers have served a critical need.
Many providers opened their doors wider when things were shutting down; they cared for the children of first responders and frontline workers so they could go to work. Child care workers served as teachers, caregivers, counselors and friends to those who needed them; and are helping children recover from learning loss and prepare for kindergarten.
And now more than ever, the public understands the critical role we play in a thriving society.
