Erin Sandler-Rathe Keynote Speaker: Rosalin Acosta Secretary of Labor and Workforce Development, Commonwealth of Massachusetts 3 million women left the workforce in 20201, largely due to the pressures that the COVID pandemic placed on families: childcare centers closed or limited their hours and capacity; school-age children began learning at home full-time; businesses laid off or furloughed staff for months. Join us for an examination of these issues with Sec. Rosalin Acosta, who has put these questions front and center in her policies and lived them firsthand with her family. A panel discussion, moderated by Catherine Carlock of the Boston Business Journal, follows the keynote address and brings together women leaders from a variety of industries.
