Show Notes

Craig's guest is Jeffrey Miles, Senior Director for Early Childhood Excellence with the United Way for Southeastern Michigan.  They just announced that their Connect4Care Kids program has expanded beyond just the city of Detroit, and now is available for residents in all of Wayne County.  The program is  a free, centralized resource designed to make it easier and less overwhelming for families with young children to find and understand options for early childhood education and care.   By creating a "one stop shop", parents get vital information on the location, quality, and costs of child care facilities near them.  In addition, they can learn what benefits may be available to them to make quality child care more affordable.
