Child Care Resources will be hosting the 2021 Seeds of Change Annual Event on Friday, October 15th at 7pm. Formerly known as the the CCR Luncheon, the Annual Event will illustrate the impact of investing in children’s early learning as a benefit not only to the children, families, and child care providers we serve, but to our community as a whole.

Child Care Resources has been working with families, caregivers, early learning professionals, and community partners to ensure that every child has a great start in school an in life. We are a trusted resource for families seeking child care across Washington State, helping more than 18,000 families each year explore their early learning options and make informed decisions. Through coaching and professional development, we help more than 2,000 child care professionals annually in King and Pierce Counties develop and improve the quality of their care for all children.

 This is a fundraising event. The CCR Annual Event is a critical financial support that helps us advance our mission of improving all children’s access to high quality early learning experiences so that all children have a great start in school and in life. Join us and register today!
