Child care is not simply a family issue—it is workforce and economic infrastructure. In this episode of The Business Signal, host Dirk Hobbs speaks with SherryLynn Boyles, president and CEO of Joint Initiatives for Youth + Families, about the shortage of affordable child care across the Pikes Peak region.

Boyles explains how limited capacity affects parents’ ability to work, employers’ ability to recruit and retain talent, and children’s long-term development. The conversation also explores Joint Initiatives’ collaborative model, bringing agencies, educators, providers, employers, and community leaders together to reduce fragmented access to services.

Listeners will learn why solving the crisis requires more providers, stronger support for the early-childhood workforce, sustainable funding, and greater employer involvement. The message is direct: businesses cannot treat child care as someone else’s problem. Employers, policymakers, providers, and residents all have a role in building a system that allows families—and the economy—to thrive.
