Balancing the raising young children and maintaining strong work performance is a reality every working parent knows all too well.
There are more than 45,000 children under the age of 5 in El Paso and Teller Counties. Only 16,000 spots for organized, certified childcare are available in the region.
This leaves more than 29,000 children without an opportunity for childcare. Of those, 17,000 are from families who come from working families who would benefit greatly from a reliable, safe program for their child(ren).
Learn how Joint Initiatives and local leaders from every sector of our community are coming together to meet the challenge here in El Paso and Teller Counties-a challenge that is impacting every community in America.
Meet SherryLynn Boyles and learn how you can engage and help be a part of the solutions need to meet this tremendous gap.

It's Well Past Time to Showcase the Southern Colorado Business and Economic community.
Southeastern Colorado, anchored by the economies of Colorado Springs, Pueblo, and dozens of other communities is steadily emerging to be one of the state’s leading and most dynamic economic regions. It is this region, the So.Co. Business Forum & Digest will focus on primarily.
The Time is NOW! Our region’s maturity has reached a point where solid news and information is desired and needed to further advance our economic development goals and decision-making. Until now, the business and economic discussion has largely been siloed by community. And typically, the information conveyed is merely reporting.
Savvy business owners and leaders know that access and visibility to strong business intelligence is a key ingredient for success. This unique, highly focused business and economic development communication will provide that access and visibility.
How? By providing timely, well-vetted news and information about who, what, when, where, how, and why business is happening in So. Co.
The Forum & Digest will showcase our numerous industry sectors, create awareness of new and existing business expansion, subject matter expert content in dozens of business categories, and provide expert analysis on our economic performance and forecasting in key verticals.
The publication is unabashedly pro-business whether it’s a start up, a small business or a major corporate employer, our goal is to present readers with the news and information they need to be informed and aware of the region’s assets, opportunities, threats, expert knowledge centers, and more.
