Understanding the research and legislation around staffed child care networks is important to planning, developing and recruiting for Focused Family Child Care Networks (FFCN). Participants in this session will gain an understanding of the policies and legislation for staffed networks and Oregon’s investment in this intensive support of child care providers. Regional FCCN coordinators will share valuable lessons learned and strategies to create a supportive community of providers. Participants will create an action plan to aid in recruitment, retention and network planning.
