Resource and referral work with child care providers

The Washington State Child Care Resource & Referral Network and local resource and referral agencies work to support licensed child care providers in a number of ways:

  • Professional development, training and onsite consultation opportunities
  • Informative newsletters
  • Technical assistance by phone
  • Connections to other community resources and child care provider networks

In addition, the R & R Network administers the Washington Scholarships for Child Care Professionals which helps early childhood professionals pay for a college education through community and technical colleges in early childhood education, or pay for Child Development Associates (C.D.A.) credential application fees. For information about the program or to obtain a scholarship application, call the toll-free number, 1.866.308.3224. http://www.childcarenet.org/providers
