During the COVID pandemic, DECAL offered POWER payments to all eligible early learning professionals and staff here in Georgia.  POWER stood for Providing our workforce essential recognition and at $1,000 per person in three rounds totaled over $118 million in supplemental payments from the American Rescue Plan. Today POWER has become POWER-ED, a wage supplement paid through DECAL Scholars to support early child care workers as they begin or further their education. Joining us this week is Abby Mozo, Professional Learning Operations Analyst here at DECAL, and Lindsey Peterson and Charlotte Pelz, both with Care Solutions, who help us administer the program.
