Childcare priorities in a growing Collier County
Business owners agree childcare is key to building a thriving economy, as does The Greater Naples Chamber of Commerce, which made early childhood education and childcare a local and state legislative priority after more than 20 childcare facilities closed in Collier County during the pandemic.
Collier County residents, business professionals, education and childcare experts say the county needs more affordable childcare and kids’ programs to enable employees to join the workforce and increase the economy.
