In a world where more and more families have single parents or both parents working, there’s a growing need for child care services before and after school. However, finding high-quality and affordable child care can be a challenge for parents in Irvine.

Providing scholarships for child care to help low-income, working families.
Supporting the expansion and maintenance of child care facilities.
