Report calls on business sector to support early learning
A recent report, Unfinished Business: Continued Investment in Child Care and Early Education is Critical to Business and America’s Future, from the Committee of Economic Development, a Washington D.C.-based, business-led national policy group provides new data, strategies, developments and examples of corporate engagement to promote investment in early childhood.
The report was released at a forum in Detroit that featured remarks by James Rohr, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, PNC Financial Services, Inc. and Carl Camden, Chief Executive Officer, Kelly Services, Inc. Rohr and Camden are CED Trustees and long-time supporters of improving educational opportunities for young children. The CED initiative is aimed at engaging business leaders across the country in the effort to develop more high-quality early learning opportunities for children from birth to age 8.
