(KSFK/Angela Denning)

Alaskans are heading back to work. But many daycare centers and camps are closed. Those that are open are operating under new rules and with limited capacity. How will camps and child care centers make sure they keep kids safe? And how will parents cope if they can’t find childcare? On the next Talk of Alaska, join us to discuss childcare challenges and possible solutions, during the COVID-19 pandemic.
