State leaders forsaking our children

State leaders forsaking our children

I am the director of a non-profit agency that provides services to foster children. I am horrified over the decisions being made about the future for the children in our community.

I understand that families will be put on a waiting list for Department of Economic Security child-care subsidy. In an economy in which we need to stimulate and create jobs, I am confused as to how it makes sense to make child care unaffordable?
