Description

As the agency reported it.

Purpose
The purpose of this grant is to expand childcare capacity within the regen tech hub to support workforce childcare needs. This project will increase the number of new state licensing-approved childcare workers, develop and support regional childcare centers, and evaluate and influence regional childcare needs and access.
Activities
1) adapt and launch registered apprenticeship program workers by hiring staff for the program (director of workforce development, marketing manager, recruiter, assistant operations director, social worker) and developing its curriculum, evaluation tools, tracking systems, and network. 2) expand regional childcare centers through hiring, perform a supply and demand study and develop new activities to provide better access to childcare for the region. 3) form an advisory committee of regen valley consortium partners and members, bringing community leaders together to focus on childcare services and policy.
Expected outcomes
Increased supply of childcare workers via childcare apprenticeship program (run-rate five cohorts per year, each with 14 childcare apprentices). 240-350 new childcare professionals by the end of year 5, create new activities to increase the access to childcare in the region. Childcare centers hire more workers and increase the reliability of their earnings. Business surveys and childcare center awards monitoring drive improved understanding of local community needs, strengths, and gaps.
Intended beneficiaries
Remove childcare-related barriers for local talent pool to participate in regen valley workforce. Facilitate paths to employment and earnings security for childcare workers. Address business workforce needs by including businesses in childcare project discussions and decisions.
Subrecipient activities
