Child and Family Resources, Inc. is now Best Practice Certified
Throughout New York State, Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies (CCR&Rs) are an invaluable link between families, child care providers, and communities. CCR&Rs educate families about high-quality care and help them find it; recruit and train new providers; offer providers technical assistance; and encourage government, business leaders, and the public to support the expansion of high-quality services. In 2006, Child & Family Resources began the process of certification including an agency self assessment, policy and practice evaluation and an on-site review. Successful completion of the certification signifies that the CCR&R is a high quality, professionally run organization that uses sound business practices.
Child and Family Resources has been recognized by New York State Child Care Coordinating Council for the successful completion of the Best Practices Certification Process. This plaque was awarded to Julie McCoy, Executive Director and the Child Care Resource and Referral Team by Carol J. Saginaw, Executive Director, New York State Child Care Coordinating Council.
