The Inclusive Child Care Program provides support and resources to Early Learning and Child Care Programs throughout the Child and Family Services Northwest Region 8 to coach and support the inclusion and participation of all children within licensed/approved Day Care Centres, Family Child Care Programs, Out of School Programs and Preschool Programs.
“Every child needs a champion – an adult who will never give up on them, who understands the power of connection, and insists that they become the best that they can possibly be.” Rita Pierson, Educator
How Does ICCP Provide Support?
This program assists programs and educators to build their capacity and confidence to include children who have extra support needs, increase families’ access to inclusive child care, and prevent the exclusion or removal of children from child care programs.
