OUR POSITION: PGT teams up with YMCA for near-site day care for workers’ children.

Working families in Southwest Florida struggle to find decent, affordable housing. They have well-publicized problems getting access to health insurance and coping with the rising costs of health care. Transportation is always an issue; the availability of good jobs too.

Then there’s another real-life issue working mothers and fathers cope with every working day: day care.

Affordable day care can be hard to find. It can be inconvenient. While at work, parents may spend an inordinate amount of time worried about their young children off in a day care center.
