The purpose of the webinar was to address concerns regarding liability insurance, provide a summary of efforts to date, and show how PennAEYC’s website – Shared Source PA – can help.

Tools available on the website that were touted during the webinar include recruitment and retention (from onboarding practices to the low cost and high impact of staff benefits), strengthening business practices (such as reducing operating costs and family child care operation), and resources for teachers and families (such as curriculum planning resources and managing challenging behavior).

Shared Source PA can also help to successfully obtain quotes and secure insurance for family child care businesses and centers of all sizes. 

The webinar explored how to understand business insurance and how carriers assess risk. It tackled impacts to eligibility and cost (such as business location or claims history) as well as methods of assistance (such as completing an annual assessment and implementing strong human resources and workplace safety practices).

Panelists in the webinar included Jen DeBell, PennAEYC’s executive director, as well as Rose Snyder, PennAEYC’s senior director of education and operations, and two representatives from CCA for Social Good.
