About the Early Childhood Workforce Incentive Scale:
Nevada’s Preschool Development Grant Birth - 5 (PDG B-5) is developing an incentives scale for family and workforce engagement opportunities to share their voices and lived experiences and inform early childhood programs and services.
In collaboration with The Children's Cabinet, this project supports workforce and family incentives to equitably participate in PDG B-5 initiatives designed to gather input from target populations and meaningfully engage in the Nevada early childhood system.
Partners throughout the state host a variety of community events and trainings designed to engage families, provide valuable resources, and promote early childhood development. From workshops and educational sessions to fun, interactive activities for kids, there’s something for everyone to enjoy!
When Arielle Rollins moved to Las Vegas in 2017, she believed she was building a better life for her family. Drawn by the promise of lower living costs and the support of her mother and brother, the single mother of three hoped Nevada would offer stability, opportunity, and community. Eight years later, Arielle is preparing to leave the city she’s come to love — not because she wants to, but because she can no longer afford to stay.
