Jessica Kivel - "Holding It All Together: Working Moms and Child Care in Arkansas"

The Women's Foundation of Arkansas released newly commissioned research report examining the realities facing working moms in Arkansas - Holding It All Together: Working Moms and Childcare in Arkansas. Working moms are crucial for Arkansas's economy, yet they face mounting pressures that threaten their workforce participation and financial stability. Rising child care costs and inflexible workplace policies have created a perfect storm that is contributing to women opting out of the labor force—with significant consequences for Arkansas families, businesses, and the state's economic potential. The Women’s Foundation of Arkansas commissioned this study to learn more about how working moms are holding it all together and what we as a state can do to respond to their needs for workplace flexibility, affordable child care, paid leave, and a supportive village.
