For some parents, the average cost of childcare in Illinois exceeds the annual tuition for most of the state’s public universities.

The economics of child care are fundamentally broken. Like health care, it will take a flood of public resources to help support a system that costs more to maintain than consumers can afford.

At the same time, childcare workers are notoriously overworked and underpaid.

In Illinois, a quiet reckoning is underway led by a private-public group of advocates and government officials.

Reset digs into the reality of what child care workers do versus what they earn, why it matters, and what solutions may be on the horizon.
