Letter to the editor: Child care providers are frontline workers, too

Through COVID 19, we have seen essential workers (doctors, nurses, paramedics, firefighters, police officers, cashiers, mail delivery and the list goes on) step up, take care and go out each day to serve others. There are around 265 early childhood teachers employed in Lenoir and Greene County. Sadly, the median income is $10.50 per hour and most do not have benefits such as, paid leave and heath care.
