Confronting the Crisis: Childcare in America

NEW DOCS

Academy Award-winning director and actress, Lee Grant, has created a moving account of the complex and sometimes dismal state of child care in late 20th century America. From two-member professional families exhausting nanny after nanny to single parents trying to maintain jobs and households, Grant focuses on problems and potential solutions. Government and corporate roles are explored in this search for a cure. This is a provocative call to action, even for those without children, for it is about the future of America as it enters the 21st Century.
