Develop innovative, cross-sector child care partnerships
Affordable child care is a prohibitive factor for those living below the NPPS who wish to obtain employment or further their education.
Faith communities have both space and human resources to play a lead role in the development of child care partnerships.
To get started:
Explore your immediate area for potential partners (e.g., businesses, educational institutions).
Identify what each partner can bring to the partnership.
Establish a child care center or program, pursuing the appropriate training and licensure.
Form a leadership team consisting of representatives from each partner, inclusive also of those utilizing the program.
