Long-Term Strategies for Strengthening the Child Care Workforce (Urban/Larger Counties)

March 22, 2023

Wednesday, March 22, 2022 | 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time

Since February 2020, the child care sector has lost nearly 60,000 educators. Because of low pay and poor benefits in the field, it can be difficult to recruit and retain qualified child care providers. Counties have allocated COVID-19 relief funding to invest in new and existing child care providers, but much of this funding will run out in the next few years. Join this interactive discussion to hear from county leaders about long-term strategies to finance and sustain investments in the early childhood workforce. The March 22nd convening will focus on urban and larger suburban counties.

County Strategies to Provide Supportive Housing for Familiar Faces

March 29, 2023

Wednesday, March 29, 2023 | 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 pm Eastern Time

What does it take to house and support familiar faces? Familiar faces are individuals who frequently cycle through jails, homeless shelters, emergency departments and other crisis services. Familiar faces often have complex health and behavioral health conditions that can result in overuse of these costly services without improving their situations, leaving communities paying for poor outcomes. In response, many counties are developing coordinated continuums of care to address the systemic and individual challenges associated with multiple systems involvement. One of the most important tools for counties to effectively improve long-term outcomes is housing, and in particular supportive housing. Join NACo for a panel discussion with experts and county leaders who have developed innovative funding models to support housing programs and facilities for familiar faces within their communities.
