Where You Can Make an Impact
Child Care Connections
Invest in the Future
Did you know, Montana only meets 43% of the demand for child care? Shockingly, families with young children are spending an average of $15,274 per child every year–a staggering 40.3% more than annual in-state tuition for a four-year public college.
Child Care Connections is committed to closing this gap. We strive to make quality child care accessible to all families. When you invest in our programs and services, you give children the best start, families the opportunity to work, and early childhood professionals the ability to open and expand quality child care programs.
