During our new webinar series, we focus on how states are responding to the coronavirus. Specifically, we'll explore the decisions that states have made about important child care issues during this time, including: emergency care, supporting families with critical child care decisions, child care subsidies and supporting providers who are caring the children of essential workers.           

In the first part of this series, we spoke with professionals in Vermont and Minnesota.

**Presenters:**  
Aly Richards, CEO, Let’s Grow Kids  
Ann McCully, Executive Director, Child Care Aware® of Minnesota

**Moderator:**  
Ami Gadhia, Chief Policy, Research & Programs, Child Care Aware® of America
