The Child Care Resource Center (CCRC) will expand promising approaches to building parent and caregiver understanding of children’s development. The CCRC will engage parents as critical stakeholders by making information readily available and easy to navigate so that parents can find child care and enroll in a timely manner.

Some activities will include the expansion of the Parent Cafes, development of an Early Childhood Provider Café model, facilitation of a virtual Parent Consortium that will inform statewide early childhood initiatives, and further development of the Statewide Verification Hub.
