The Clay County Early Childhood Fund’s mission is to increase access to child care and retain current providers.
Assistance with child care related critical needs in our state is crucial to support the children, providers, and workforce that contribute to our state's excellence. Your contribution goes towards:
- New child care facility start-up in Clay County, MN
- Facility updates for current providers through easy to obtain mini-grants
- Training for providers and staff to help with retention and enrichment
- Appreciation celebrations and recognition for child care providers (see photo from last year's flower delivery to 15 child care centers)
- Community events to connect and engage with community and providers: including our annual KidsFest event The Longest Table event
- Increase accessibility of mental health and behavioral support for providers and children, especially to help child care facilities with mental health and behavioral support right on sight.
