The Partnership receives funding to support quality Early Childhood programs in the following Missouri counties; Crawford, Dent, Maries, and Phelps. Funding has been made available through a grant from the Missouri Department of Social Services.
The funding is to be used for start up or expansion of high quality early childhood programs serving children birth to age three. If you are interested in becoming a licensed child care provider or expanding the capacity at your existing accredited facility, please contact us. All funding is subject to availability and the ability to meet criteria for quality programs.
