As part of its recovery and resilience efforts, United Way is awarding $100,000 to help families with childcare through Better Together’s Child Initiative. Executive Director Ken Wilhelm says the money will give people access to full-day care for kids ages 5-to-10. He said they’ve identified thousands of those “high-need” families who simply don’t have the financial ability to purchase childcare services if they could find a slot.
