First Children’s Finance has chosen Fergus Falls to participate in their Rural Child Care Innovation Program. The Rural Child Care Innovation Program (RCCIP) addresses the challenges of rural child care through the lens of economic development.

The RCCIP uses a community engagement process designed to identify right-sized solutions to increase the supply of high quality affordable child care in rural communities.

By mobilizing community members and empowering the creation of community-based solutions, rural communities are able to preserve existing child care businesses and add new child care slots.

Over an 18-month period, chosen communities will focus on opportunities and challenges they are facing with child care. First Children’s Finance helps facilitate the conversation and provides expertise, tools, and resources to support the creation and implementation of solutions to address child care shortages in rural communities. 

This fall the Community Action Plan was finalized. Fergus Falls teams will work on the goals identified through the assessment process.
