Oklahoma City, like many cities across the country, is facing a child care crisis. The Greater Oklahoma City Chamber, through funding from the City of Oklahoma City, partnered with the Coalign Group and the Oklahoma Partnership for School Readiness to establish a comprehensive data repository and strategy to address child care needs as it impacts the workforce of Oklahoma City. The research encompasses insights into the requirements of large and small diverse businesses across a variety of industries within Oklahoma City while also considering national trends about the child care industry. The Chamber Forum will be held at 11:30 a.m., Sept. 20, at the Petroleum Club of Oklahoma City, located on the 34th floor of the BancFirst Tower, 100 N. Broadway Ave. Attendees at the September event will hear the results of the study and learn about the recommendations to address the needs in our community. Participating in a panel discussion will be: • Carri Hicks, Senator, Oklahoma State Senate • Kelly Kay, CEO, YMCA of Greater Oklahoma City • Cathy O’Connor, Founder, Coalign Group • Carrie Williams, Executive Director, Oklahoma Partnership of School Readiness The cost to attend the September Chamber Forum is $45 for Chamber members and $55 for nonmembers.
