Providers, your focus should be where it matters most, on the children in your care.

That’s where Regional Community Partners (RCPs) come in. As part of Missouri Childhood Resource & Referral, RCPs support families at no cost by helping with child care subsidy applications, renewals, and questions, in person or virtually.

When forms are completed correctly the first time, delays are reduced and care stays consistent.

Recently, one provider connected two families with their local RCP during renewal season. Both applications were approved quickly, and the children stayed enrolled without interruption. 🙌
