Early Childhood Education (ECE) Educators are fundamental to the quality of life of the children they serve, the communities they are in, and the thousands of families in Milwaukee that could not go to work if there was not a safe and enriching place to send their children. ECE Educators have been displaced from the workforce because wages have not kept up with the increase in housing costs. Through the investments of the Department of Workforce Development, the Northwestern Mutual Foundation, the Zilber Family Foundation, the American Family Institute, the City of Milwaukee, LISC, CDA, and others, 40 new single family homes will be built near 5 major ECE Providers. The homes are exclusively for ECE Educators and will be sold for approximately $100,000 each.
