ABOUT US
The Reno County Child Care Task Force brought together community leaders and partners with a shared goal: strengthening the child care system for Reno County’s children, families, providers, and businesses.
Through collaboration, community input, and significant public and private investment, the Task Force worked to stabilize existing child care, expand capacity, support providers, and develop new approaches to some of the community’s most persistent child care challenges.
Over four years, that work helped build a stronger foundation for child care in Reno County — and created lessons and solutions that can continue to shape the community’s approach for years to come.
