On Thursday, April 30, local municipal leaders will join Washington Families Thrive (WFT) for “Building Blocks: City Solutions to Child Care Growth,” a virtual event dedicated to solving the child care crisis through innovative infrastructure and small business support.
As child care remains a critical barrier for the workforce, this event highlights how local cities are taking the lead to ensure child care providers can grow and thrive, directly benefiting working families and the local economy. By treating child care as essential infrastructure, municipalities are reducing employee turnover and absenteeism while fostering sustainable business growth.
Washington Families Thrive is hosting this event and is a local Snohomish County business dedicated to helping employers be part of the child care crisis solution. We partner with mid-sized businesses to help their workforce find affordable, extra-vetted, dependable, and safe child care. We also offer our services directly to families, where we act as their advocate to shop around for the best tuition rates while ensuring the provider perfectly matches their specific needs.
This event highlights how local municipalities are successfully tackling child care infrastructure in ways that lead to sustainable child care business growth. We would be honored to have you join the audience to hear from our featured speakers:
- Mayor George Hurst, City of Lynnwood
- Deputy Mayor Jenne Alderks, City of Bothell
- Councilmember Susan Paine, City of Edmonds
