This toolkit supports ECE providers with navigating the complex process of child care facility development in unincorporated areas of LA County. Developed in partnership with the LA County Department of Public Health, Office for the Advancement of Early Care & Education (OAECE), it provides a step-by-step process and resources for obtaining approvals to renovate and construct new ECE facilities.
The toolkit can also be accessed at childcare.lacounty.gov and is currently available in English, Spanish, Korean, and Chinese.
As an additional resource for funding, please explore California’s Child Care and Development Infrastructure Grant Program’s Request for Applications for New Construction and Major Renovation of child care facilities – released in November 2022.
