Child Care Resource and Referral (CCRR) centres make it easier for families to find and access responsive and inclusive quality licensed and registered child care by providing information, support, resources and referral services to parents and child care providers across the province.
The Ministry of Education and Child Care provides funding to CCRRs, which work in partnership with government to improve the accessibility, affordability, and quality of child care in all B.C. communities.
CCRRs help to connect families with the early years and child care services they need such as referrals to child care providers and community services, access to quality resources and lending libraries, workshops, drop-in programs, and provide consultation, support and parenting information. .
CCRRs provide support services and consultations to all child care providers to foster quality inclusive care through services such as: workshops and training, networking opportunities, supportive program outreach, access to lending libraries, referrals to community resources, drop-in programs, and listing in a registry of licensed and Licence-Not-Required child care providers.
CCRRs may elect to charge a nominal fee for workshops to ensure registration numbers align with attendance.
CCRRs also help License-Not-Required child care providers to become registered by offering training and additional support through the process.
Aboriginal Child Care Resource and Referral
The BC Aboriginal Child Care Society (BCACCS) operates the only provincial Aboriginal Child Care Resource and Referral (ACCRR) program in B.C. Services through the ACCRR are funded by the Ministry of Children and Family Development and support early learning and child care programs, early childhood educators, families and communities throughout B.C. by providing information, outreach, resource lending, networking, and learning opportunities. ACCRR program staff work in partnership with Indigenous and non-Indigenous educators, Indigenous families and communities on and off reserve and in urban settings throughout the province.
