The Resource & Referral (R&R) Program supports families in their search for affordable child care services through providing referrals that meet family needs.  R&R also supports early child care educators in the journey to become licensed daycare providers.  Training opportunities and workshops are provided on various topics including child development and licensing regulations for licensed daycare providers for children birth to 13 years. 

  • The Family Day Care Food Program:

    • Helps ensure that nutritious meals are served to children being cared for in the home by licensed family day care providers.
    • Provides training in nutrition for child care providers. 

     

    The Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) allows our programs to serve nutritious meals and snacks. 

    • Provide children with nutritious, well-balanced meals to enhance their ability to learn.
    • Develop good eating habits that will last through later years.
