Participate in Early Childhood Wage Survey
Children First and Reinvestment Fund, with support from Start Strong PA, is conducting a survey to determine the wages of early childhood educators across Pennsylvania. Information will be confidential and data to effectively advocate on behalf of educators.
Child Wage Survey
Providers of early childhood education have struggled with low wages for some time. These unlivable wages have contributed to the current staffing shortages affecting the entire profession. In order to effectively advocate on behalf of educators, legislators need to know the current wages that early childhood professionals are being paid in real time.
To effectively gather this information, teachers in early childhood classrooms are encouraged to participate in this wage survey. Information will be confidential and any data collected will only be reported in the aggregate. Participants will also have the option to enter a drawing for a $50 Amazon gift card.
The survey will be open until September 30, 2022.
