About Child Care Resource & Referral (CCR&R)

Child Care Resource & Referral of Southwest Iowa (CCR&R) is a non-profit organization that helps people who care for and about children. CCR&R provides referrals, resources, education and advocacy to help meet your community’s need for affordable and accessible child care. We charge a small registration fee for some classes. All other services are free.

Because your needs are unique, we tailor our services to your specific needs rather than a one-size-fits-all solution. We provide guidance by phone, in person, on the internet and in other ways. We offer the following services:
