People Powered Workforce & Workplace Transformation Initiative (PPWWTI)
This initiative engages early childhood systems, organizational leaders and direct service providers to transform workplace culture and practices so women and families thrive.
The vast majority of the infant and early childhood (IEC) workforce, who support young children (prenatal to 5 years, P-5) and their families, are women. The PPWWTI proposes a paradigm shift, centering relationships to address multiple barriers to a thriving IEC workplace and disproportionately harming women. Our solution transforms workplace culture and practices, engaging systems, organizational leaders and direct service providers to promote thriving workplaces so our workforce can support children's and families' wellbeing.
