Summary
Prospective member Christine Beltran, who coordinates childcare for 83 CalWORKs families, told the Council childcare isn't even on the CAC's radar despite being foundational — parents can't work, train, or seek housing without it. She also flagged eight homeless families with young children on her caseload.
