Engaging and Growing the Elkhart County Family Child Care Network
The Family Child Care Network (FCCN) is growing in Elkhart County. In November, family child care providers gathered to enjoy a meal, celebrate their work, and learn more about early childhood programs and services, including those provided by CAPS, Maple City Health Care Center, and On My Way Pre K.
Thank you to Geminus for coordinating and facilitating these opportunities for sharing, learning, and networking. Thank you early childhood professionals for the work you do each day to support young children and their families in Elkhart County!
