An increasing number of Americans – most of whom are women and people of color – are employed in service sector jobs that are marked by low wages, no health care, job insecurity, and lack of training and career advancement opportunities. The SEIU Education & Support Fund tackles these issues by designing and facilitating worker-centered, relationship-based, and accessible education, training, and workforce development programs. We serve as a strategic partner to the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and collaborate with other unions, nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and employers to help workers access good jobs and spark positive social change. Throughout our work, we promote a culture of empowerment that honors experience, culture, diversity, and inclusion.
Child Care Providers United Training Fund is a coalition of organizations united by a shared vision for lifting up the leadership of family child care providers in California, the majority of whom are women of color and immigrants. Family child care providers, who run child care businesses out of their homes, represent an essential workforce in California and are drivers of economic regeneration and community health. Our providers work with the state to provide subsidized care services for our most underserved families and have a unique role in leveling the playing field, ensuring that all children, regardless of income, have access to quality care and education. Our early childhood educators create the foundation for well-being and academic success for children across the state, positively shaping our next generation.
All staff members are employees of SEIU Education & Support Fund (ESF). Our Child Care Providers United (CCPU) Training Fund team members are remotely dispersed across the state of California.
ESF is excited to welcome a Director of Expanded Participation. This inaugural role will create, design, lead, and execute the buildout of the CCPU Expanded Participation Department. The Director of Expanded Participation will supervise a suite of manager-level positions with oversight responsibility for the end-to-end program delivery and budgetary oversight for orientations to CCPU benefits, trainings that respond to new legislation affecting Family Child Care, trainings that respond to the specific and unique needs of Family Friend and Neighbor (license exempt) providers, and the training fund’s first Registered Apprenticeship. The Director of Expanded Participation will be a thoughtful leader deeply committed to racial justice and ensuring that the family child care workforce, largely women of color, are supported in reaching their professional development goals.
The successful candidate will have a strong understanding of the political and legislative process within CA, especially as it pertains to ECE regulations. They will also be skillful at creating high-performing teams with a shared investment in creating meaningful social change through a commitment to language justice and improved educational opportunities for child care workers in California.
