You Decide

Allegheny Child Care Website

 

If your organization provides child care, after-school, out-of-school, and/or summer programming, update or submit your listing as soon as possible on the Allegheny Child Care website. By updating your information, the Allegheny Child Care tool will assist you in promoting and marketing your program(s) to families. In turn, this will allow your program to expedite the process of getting children enrolled, thus making a stressful task less burdensome for families.
