Ugh, @christydavis. I wish I could say I was surprised. We are working on it, but we have so far to go to provide a living wage for those taking care of our youngest citizens!

Tim Dawks @timdawks took the words right out of my brain! My own child is struggling and I'm trying to help her and the 100's of kids and teachers I come in contact with. It is overwhelming, and I'm one of the lucky ones who has a job to do.

Thank you #ProsperSpringfield for holding us accountable and speaking truth. We have a long way to go. I commit to educating child care providers on how to create and insure anti-biased environments for children to learn. The gap starts early. https://t.co/bneK521k4m
