WATCH: Discussing Child Care in Framingham

State officials came to Framingham recently to solicit thoughts on the matter.

Conversations surrounding child care and early education in the United States, and specifically here in Massachusetts, often involve concerns about affordability and accessibility. It’s a challenge faced by not just the families themselves seeking care, but providers as well.

So, the Commonwealth is taking a unique approach toward ensuring affordable, high-quality child care with the help of Governor Maura Healey's Early Education and Child Care Task Force.
