Regional Childcare

Project Overview

SRPC has partnered with students from the NYU Wagner Graduate School of Public Service on a project aimed to help address regional childcare challenges that have impacted economic growth and development. As part of their Urban Planning Capstone project, students will be working alongside staff to conduct extensive research, collect data, engage in stakeholder outreach, brainstorm best practices, and provide resources that can help support our region and beyond. This project began in October 2024 and will culminate in the spring of 2025.

Outreach
