Child Care Resource & Referral (CCR&R)

(no cost to provider)
Thousands of Internet searches each year
500 calls per month

CCR&R is a statewide program that helps families find quality child care. The staff fields phone calls and internet inquiries from parents. Once we know the child’s age, personality, special needs, and the general vicinity the parents are looking in, we can give them a list of child care centers and homes to research. We also give parents a checklist to use when visiting a child care center or home. Legally, we cannot personally recommend any child care center or home.
90 % of customers say the service helped them identify quality child care
70% of customers enrolled their child in a center/home referred by CCR&R
92% of customers said that they would use the service again if needed.
