Childcare Crisis Costs Counties Millions | Charlotte News
Description
Cabarrus and Rowan counties are in the grip of a childcare crisis that’s costing nearly $150 million annually in lost business—and it’s forcing families, workers, and the local economy into impossible choices. With over 21,000 workers disrupted last year and a shortage of qualified staff driving down available spots, the ripple effects stretch from parents struggling to juggle work and care to a future workforce at risk. Leaders are rallying for urgent, coordinated action—from local to federal—to fix this foundational problem before it costs even more.
