CCR’s Mission
CCR provides access to and resources for early care and education. We help make child care connections, strengthen early learning opportunities, and create child care solutions for families. CCR works to ensure that children birth to age twelve are developing to their full potential and are well prepared for school and life.
Child Care Resource is just a phone call away for all families!
The CCR offices will be closed Wednesday November 24 – Friday November 28 for Thanksgiving. We will resume normal business hours on November 29.
CCR continues to operate on a partially remote schedule. If you call with questions about financial assistance or need a referral to a child care provider you may be transferred to a staff member who is working remotely. We apologize about any delays this may cause. You may visit us Monday – Friday 8:30 – 4:30. Masks are required for all individuals regardless of vaccination status, we appreciate your cooperation.
