“The onerous cost of raising a family in Massachusetts is another challenge for a state that has struggled to hold onto younger workers, many who flee Massachusetts in search of lower costs of living. Young workers raising families not only contribute to the labor force, but also help propel the consumer-driven economy by buying homes, cars, furniture, and other goods and services.
‘[Families] are going to go to other places where it’s not so expensive to live,” said Wendy Robeson, senior research scientist at Wellesley Center for Women at Wellesley College, “and that’s bad for everybody.’”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:7y6gnezoo7nh3hlg4sekm3ib/bafkreihtonx27x3t2pw47iqnoj322gueg5vrxqw3tcron6tma3jg6tuciy)

IN THE NEWS The summit featured 28 research posters, including the work of academics, research centers, graduate students, family child care providers, and center directors. “We put out a call for posters that had to meet three criteria,” Robeson, a senior research scientist at the Wellesley Centers for Women and a summit organizer, says. “The research had to focus on early childhood. There had to be a policy implication. And it had to have a Massachusetts focus. We received posters about urban development, medicine, education, public schools. It was wide open. That’s what made it so wonderful.”
