Grassroots push boosts child care pay in Mount Vernon Lisbon
A holiday bonus program funded by a local grassroots coalition funds retention bonuses for about 50 staff at Lisbon Early Childhood Center. The effort stems from a 2022 survey showing limited access to affordable quality child care and a $31,000 community fundraising drive that secured a 2 to 1 match from the state. Two additional bonuses are planned in 2024.
