"The median wage range for #childcare workers is a low of $8.94/hr in MS and high of $15.36/hr in Wash. DC. Poverty rates for #earlychildhood educators are 8x higher than for K-8 teachers, and in no state do wages meet the living standard." - @ljeaustin @CSCCEUCB #GovPrincipals
@EllaKuhn7 @shopivoryella @autselfadvocacy Agreed. Love ASAN. And my daughter & I wear comfy Ivory Ella, but just cannot buy this design for us. We aren’t puzzles for non-autistic people to figure out:(
