The Child Care Initiative Project (CCIP) is a training series that has two primary areas of focus:
- Capacity building to increase the quantity of licensed family child care homes
- Improving the quality of care provided to young children in family care homes. This intensive training series is being offered to participants going through the process to become licensed family child care providers, caregivers, and existing child care providers.
Caregiver Café is a peer support program for all types of caregivers including licensed child care providers, parents and family members, friends and neighbors taking care of children other than their own.
ALL providers, caregivers and educators are welcome, we look forward to seeing you!
