About Us


Mission

To provide advocacy and resources in the establishment and support of quality, affordable and accessible child care services for children and families in Riverside county through community partnerships.

Vision

All children and families will have access to quality, affordable child care services. 

 

The Riverside County Child Care Consortium is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to high-quality, affordable, and accessible child care programs.

In Riverside County there are four local child care councils which comprise the Consortium:
 
  • The West County Child Care Council serves the City of Riverside, Corona, Norco and Moreno Valley.
  • The Mid-County Child Care Council has a territory that begins in the Pass Area, extends through the Hemet/San Jacinto Valley and ends at the Sun City/ Menifee boundaries.
  • The Southwest County Child Care Council represents the communities of Temecula, Murrieta, Lake Elsinore, Canyon Lake, Perris and Wildomar.
  • The Coachella Valley Child Care Council serves the nine cities of the desert area.

The child care councils are comprised of members representing:

  • City/County government
  • Business
  • Education
  • Community service agencies
  • Child care organizations
  • Community leaders

Council members assess child care needs at the local level and address those needs through collaborative partnerships. The Riverside County Child Care Consortium (RCCCC) does not own or operate child care programs. Instead, it provides leadership and assistance to local communities to establish child care programs. In 1992, the RCCCC was appointed as the Local Planning Council to assist with priorities for Federal Block Grant Child Development funding in Riverside County. In that capacity, the RCCCC reviews funding and makes recommendations based on identified priorities. Founded in 1982 and incorporated in 1987, the RCCCC was initiated through funding made available by: Riverside County Board of Supervisors City of Riverside, The Press-Enterprise, Riverside Community Hospital, City of Moreno Valley, and Coachella Valley Association of Governments. RCCCC accomplishments are made possible because of community support at the city, county, state, and federal levels.
