Early Childhood Research Roundtable: Disrupting Inequities Among Early Educators

Host Organization: The Boston Foundation

About

Ubiquitous low wages often mask the uneven playing field faced by current and prospective early educators. Educators with equivalent levels of educational attainment face wage disparities depending on the age of children they teach and the funding and sponsorship of the program in which they are employed. These disparities drive teacher turnover and shortages with far reaching implications for access to high quality early care and education for all children, and the immediate and long term well-being of teachers. Strategies for disrupting these inequities will be discussed.
