RE: Summer Child Care Assistance
Do you need summer child care or know someone who does?
As we continue to see different parts of our community re-open we would like to remind you that child care options are available for summer. Child care providers are working hard to put in place necessary health and safety protocols that address COVID-19. Options are obviously quite limited compared to other summers. However, there still are many child care programs who remained open through the shutdown and many more expected to open.
If you need help making a child care plan you can contact Child Care Resource Network to be matched with operating child care providers. You can visit their website wnychildren.org or call them directly at 716-877-6666 ext. 3064. We urge you to reach out to them sooner rather than later to secure your spot.
CWA 1168 has been working with Erie County, the Child Care Resource Network and many other stakeholders to voice the concerns of our worker parents. Please let us know of your experience by emailing sbuckley@cwa1168.org or calling the office.
Thank you for all your work.
