At the same time, addressing low pay is complicated by the already high cost of child care for families. Washington, D.C.&#8217;s Early Childhood Educator Pay Equity Fund offers a groundbreaking solution to this challenge, aiming to increase pay and address longstanding inequities within the workforce. Join us for a one-hour virtual learning session to explore the implementation, impact, and potential for replicating this innovative policy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guest Speakers:<\/strong><br \/>\nErica Greenberg:<br \/>\nGreenberg is a senior fellow and PK\u201312 team lead in the Center on Education Data and Policy at the Urban Institute.
