Event | 9:30 - 11 a.m.

The Lincy Institute is pleased to host a community forum examining the economic and societal impact of the “care economy” in Southern Nevada in collaboration with TrippUmbach, a nationally recognized consulting firm that provides comprehensive services including research and strategic plans to further the operations and activities of healthcare services. 

Central to the care economy is elder care and child care. Having access to elder care and child care services is essential to working age adults, many of whom need one or both types of services to continue participating in the workforce. The delivery of child care and elder care services have far-reaching implications for our families, our communities, and our economy, and the demand for these services will increase as our population continues to grow and age.

To help Southern Nevada address the economic and social implications of the care economy, this community forum will feature the release of new reports from TrippUmbach and The Lincy Institute. In addition to assessing the current state of child care and elder care services in Southern Nevada, the reports offer policy recommendations to develop and strengthen these services in our region. 

Following a presentation of data and policy recommendations by representatives of TrippUmbach, a panel of elder care and child care specialists with expertise in academia, state and local government, and the nonprofit sector will offer their perspectives on these issues.
