Allen County Leaders Luncheon - "Investing in Childcare is an Investment in Your Workforce"
Allen County Leaders Luncheons are an exclusive series for GFW Inc. members designed to inspire and educate with keynote speakers chosen for their relevancy to you and our community.
Join us for our February event focused on addressing one of the most pressing workforce challenges in Allen County: access to affordable, quality childcare. One of the greatest barriers for people pursuing — or keeping — a great job is the cost of this care for their family. This event will bring together business leaders, policymakers, and community advocates to explore solutions and foster meaningful dialogue.
Northeast Indiana Early Childhood Coalition and Early Childhood Alliance will set the stage by highlighting the current state of childcare in Allen County and its implications for businesses. Following the keynote, we will hear from a panel of local organizations pioneering the TriShare program — an initiative that equitably distributes childcare costs between employers, employees, and the state. Together, they will explore the challenges and opportunities in creating a more family-friendly workplace culture that could enhance your organization’s talent attraction and retention, closing with an open Q&A session with the audience.
This event is designed to empower business leaders with actionable insights and collaborative solutions to retain top talent and enhance workplace satisfaction. Don’t miss this opportunity to be part of a vital conversation shaping the future of Allen County’s workforce.
Space will be limited, so reserve your seat now!
