About Child Care
Resource & Referral (CCR&R)
Child Care Resource & Referral of Southwest Iowa
(CCR&R) is a non-profit organization that helps people who care for and
about children. CCR&R provides referrals, resources, education and advocacy
to help meet your community’s need for affordable and accessible child care.
We charge a small registration fee for some classes. All other services are
free.
Because your needs are unique, we tailor our
