Child Start has developed a Child Care Partnership (CCP) program that will strengthen the quality and impact of child care and other family services in the communities we serve. Administered through our Early Head Start program, CCPs will increase our community’s capacity to provide infant and toddler care in high-quality environments; strengthen support of working parents by increasing access to a broad range of integrated services; and enhance coordination of service delivery among agencies and organizations serving children and families. The partnership ensures that comprehensive services for children and families are provided based on their individual needs.
