Rooted in a statewide network of child care resource and referral agencies, The Early Care & Learning Council works in cooperation with organizations and indivuals representing child care providers, parents, businesses, community organizations, and other individuals. Parent Central is an additional form of out reach for New York State families and child care providers. Each person who signs up can choose the area or areas that most meet their needs.
