Childcare in Cook County: seeking solutions

Although Cook County is a wonderful place to live and raise a family, for some it can be a difficult place to live.

WTIP is looking at this issue and what is being done to alleviate this stressful situation for young families.

WTIP reached out to Bill Hansen, a community leader, to learn more about local efforts under way to find solutions.
