Nationwide, early learning programs have had to close classrooms and turn families away due to the lack of early educators available to meet today’s child care demands. While this harms young children and their families, there are also repercussions for businesses, the economy, and society. To address this need, the “Your Career, Our Future” campaign has collected stories from several early educators and families throughout the Pittsburgh Region.

By sharing the wonderful experiences of current early educators and the families that they serve, the campaign hopes that more people will answer the call to become early educators.

Current and prospective early educators may connect with The Institute for Early Childhood Career Pathways at Trying Together to speak with a career advisor and get started on entering and advancing within the profession.
