RURAL CHILD CARE INNOVATION PROGRAM

About Us

By mobilizing and empowering rural communities the landscape of early care and education thrives in rural America.

The Rural Child Care Innovation Program (RCCIP), funded by MN Department of Human Services, is an initiative of First Children’s Finance to address the challenges of rural child care in Greater Minnesota through the lens of rural economic development.

The RCCIP uses a community engagement process designed to develop right-sized solutions to increase the supply of high quality affordable child care in Minnesota’s rural communities.
