Dear Neighbor,
I have great news for parents who are struggling to find and afford high quality childcare. Connecticut has created its first home-based child care apprenticeship program, which aims to create more, high demand, and better-paying jobs.

The apprenticeship is designed to support everyone including aspiring caregivers and children of different cultures and who speak different languages, especially Spanish. This is vital because our community is home to a growing Hispanic population. The program will also improve the quality of early care and education with coursework in child development.

Do not forget that you can earn while you learn! The workforce training program is federally backed and requires a minimum of 2,000 hours working on the job and hundreds of hours of classroom learning. Once a participant completes the program, that person receives credentials, which in turn raises wages and improves the quality of home-based care.
