In partnership with DC Action, our Owen Schochet, PhD, MPP demonstrated the importance of a well-compensated early childhood educator workforce.
A just-published blog by Mathematica shares some exciting new data on the #WashingtonDC Early Childhood Educator Pay Equity Fund that demonstrates the value and possibilities of the program, even at the early stages of its implementation. In a study of federal employment data, Mathematica found that by the third quarter of 2023, Pay Equity Fund payments were associated with a seven percent increase in the number of early educators or more than their best estimate of #childcare teacher employment levels if the Fund did not exist. DC Action Early Childhood Policy Director Ruqiyyah Abu-Anbar said in reaction to the blog, "These findings confirm that the Pay Equity Fund is achieving one of its goals: retaining the early childhood educators that are a critical part of families' villages, the learning and development of the young children in their care, and the workforce that makes all other work possible. In this context, it is astounding that Mayor Bowser proposed eliminating the program in her budget. The Council must restore and fully fund the Pay Equity Fund in FY 25."
