Input needed regarding childcare need


A small, intrepid group has been investigating resources and options for ESF childcare.

Critical questions for those investigating options for ESF include:  "how many spaces are you looking for?  What ages”  Please help move conversations forward, and determine which, if any, funding opportunities might be available, by completing the feasibility survey (Please use ESFid to authenticate) and encourage those in your ESF employee and student circles to do so as well.    Student parents can be particularly hard to reach over the summer, so please nudge them to respond as well. 

 

Whether folks have children, are thinking about when to start families or to foster children, or have other comments to share, aggregated responses will help guide ESF’s next steps as well as answer questions SUNY has asked of campuses (same as above, plus which challenges are impacting each population the most acutely). 

This survey clearly does not address every contingency. Anyone with information that the survey does not seem to address, or is wary of sharing via that venue, I hope is comfortable contacting me directly or referring others to do so.
