| | Rural town tries innovative solution to child care crisis |
Affordable child care is a challenge for towns and cities across Minnesota. It's difficult to recruit or retain young workers if child care is not available and affordable. A northwestern Minnesota town is the first in the state to use local sales tax to fund a day care center.
"If you're missing one or two employees because their kids don't have day care, that's an inconvenience. If you can't hire young people to come to work, young accountants, because they can't get day care and they won't move here, then that affects the bottom line because we can't grow." | |
