R&R Programs

Our Resource and Referral programs offer a comprehensive range of services designed to support both parents and child care providers in the community. Through initiatives like Help Me Grow | LA, Child Care Initiative Project (CCIP), Trauma-Informed Care (TIC), Health & Safety, Quality Start LA, and Pathways (Gateway), we provide valuable resources, referrals, and training. We help parents navigate child care options in their area, assist child care providers in becoming licensed, and offer ongoing professional development to ensure high-quality care. Our goal is to empower providers with the knowledge, tools, and resources needed to create safe, nurturing, and developmentally enriching environments for children. By fostering strong, informed, and supported providers, we contribute to the growth and well-being of both children and families in our community.
