Family Child Care Champions Q and A

Family Child Care Champions is a 12-month, hands-on program that helps aspiring providers launch high-quality, licensed, home-based child care businesses.

A Family Child Care Home is a licensed facility where care is provided to no more than 10 children in the provider’s home or a home-like setting.

Applications are open now for up to four program participants from west central Missouri’s Cedar, Henry, Polk, and St. Clair counties.
