Updated Guidance about COVID 19 for Child Care, Early Learning and School Age Programs

             
               Below you will find links to the most current guidelines for child care and school age program directors and staff. Please read these documents carefully as information has changed since our last health alert release last week. 
At this time, parents who can keep their children home or arrange for other care need to do so. Child Care and School Age Care programs play a crucial role in ensuring that children of essential workers and vulnerable children who do not have alternative care still have a safe place to go.
