The CCRR program is a provincial-wide initiative to enhance the availability and quality of a range of child care options.

The program is a point of reference for parents, care providers and communities seeking information, resources, support, training and referral services that ensure that children have access to high quality child care.

This program supports parents in making informed choices about their childcare needs and provides support in applying for government financial assistance through Affordable Child Care Benefit.
