TENNESSEE, USA — ChildcareTennessee alongside the State Department of Human Services is offering grants to improve services, safety and security in licensed child care programs in Tennessee.
Child care providers can use the grants to pay for items and services such as bullet-resistant film for windows and doors, security cameras and systems, and more. Consultants can also be hired to evaluate security needs. Grant opportunities for specific areas of care — including accreditation and infant, toddler, and preschool care — are available as well.
A Community Foundation of Middle Tennessee statewide initiative, ChildcareTennessee seeks to boost services offered to children and families they serve.
