We know the economic recovery in our country will be a slow, phased process, and yet child care providers must be open and ready for families in order to begin the recovery process. This means:
· Child care providers still operating or reopening, will have to operate on financial losses for months to come due to new social distancing requirements and low enrollment as parents slowly return to work.
· Providers will also face increased supply expenses for safety and sanitation materials for the foreseeable future.
· The devastating impact of these financial realities cannot be sustained without direct federal investments that ensure child care providers, can keep their doors open to meet the needs of children and families.
