Major Activities

Activity 2

Child care resource and referral program: child start has been delivering child care resource and referral (ccr&r) services for over five decades and currently delivers these services in five kansas counties: butler, cowley, harvey, sedgwick, and sumner. Services are available in both english and spanish by phone, on-line and in person. Locally, our goals for ccr&r services are: (1) to increase the quality of early learning programs to meet families' and children's needs and (2) to increase the number of families who benefit from information about early education program choices and child development issues. Ccr&r services are based on the theories that: (1) child caregivers who focus on professional education and program quality improvement provide better educational experiences for young children; and (2) families who understand the importance of early education and how to recognize quality programs make better choices for their children. In effect, ccr&r services help bridge the gaps between families' needs and community resources.

Activity 3
