Child Care Advisory Committee
The Child Care Advisory Committee was established in November,
1988 and consists of members representing child care and preschool
program providers, the school district, and community organizations.
Members serve without term limits or compensation on a volunteer
basis.
The Committee promotes the availability of high quality child care
and preschool facilities and services for those who live and work
in Redwood City, consistent with the City's Child Care Policy (adopted
in November of 1990). Some of the activities include:
- Sponsoring public events during national Week of the Young Child
in April;
- Participating in outreach and public education efforts, including
information tables at events;
- Co-sponsoring training events for child care and preschool staff
and/or parents;
- Acting as liaisons to, or leaders of, community provider groups;
- Providing input to the City Council or the Child Care Coordinator
on City or community collaborative projects, related to child
care, children and families.
The Child Care Advisory Committee meets on the fourth Thursday,
every other month, at 7:00 p.m. The public is encouraged to attend.
