The Child Care Partnership Project C.H.I.L.D.R.E.N. of Northcentral Arkansas Description A rash of child care facility closings in Independence County, Arkansas, led local employers to come together to develop child care solutions. The result was CHILDREN (Child Care Hub for Information, Learning, Development, Resource, Education, and Networking) of Northcentral Arkansas, a resource and referral partnership formed after extensive consultation and planning by local employers, the Batesville Chamber of Commerce, child care providers, and policy-makers. The project's goal is to meet working parents' needs for quality child care by increasing child care capacity in the area and providing information to parents about child care options. Partners CHILDREN of Northcentral Arkansas includes a number of public- and private-sector partners: Arkansas Division of Child Care and Early Childhood Education Local Transitional Employment Assistance (TEA) Coalitions (entities responsible for implementing welfare reform policies) Area banks and financial institutions Arkansas Eastman Con Agra Frozen Foods White River Medical Center GenCorp Automotive White Rogers United Way of Independence County Townsends of Arkansas Northcentral Arkansas Development Council History and Development In 1995, business leaders approached the Batesville Chamber of Commerce to discuss a somewhat unorthodox topic for those parties: child care.

Operating and personnel costs are also lower in the consolidated school option, with savings approaching $3,500 per student over 40 years in Maine. As a school's enrollment decreases, the square footage and subsequent cost per student increases. Interpretation of the data by the Maine Department of Education is included. 19p.
