Childcare has been identified as a barrier to entry for our workforce. This is not just an area of concern for Darke County but across the State of Ohio. Current stay-at-home family members would work if they had access to affordable quality childcare. And therein lies the main concerns in childcare, available quality childcare and affordable childcare. In order to determine what that looks like here in Darke County, we are conducting this “Child Care Survey”. The information that is collected will be used to bring awareness to the shortage of childcare in the county and increase understanding of the underlying obstacles and impact that this shortage has on the workforce and other community concerns.
