The centers are licensed by the Department of Health. They provide a nurturing environment and a full day of age-appropriate learning activities, meals, snacks and playtime. Members pay based on a sliding fee scale. Acceptance is determined by the CCF’s eligibility guidelines, availability of space and your child’s age.
