Child Care Aware of America

Child Care Aware of America (CCAOA) is the only national organization that supports every part of the Child Care system. Together with an on-the-ground network of Child Care resource and referral (ccr&r) organizations working in States and communities, CCAOA provides research that drives effective practice and policy, builds strong Child Care programs and professionals, helps families find and afford quality Child Care, delivers thought leadership to the military and direct service to its families, works with employers on Child Care solutions, and provides a real-world understanding of what works and what doesn't to spur policymakers into action and help them build solutions. Together we make America Child Care strong and that makes everyone stronger.
