October 2024 eNews – Summer Early Childhood Care and Education Capital Fund Ribbon Cuttings; Fall Maintenance Checklist

With the close of summer came ribbon cuttings at two Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) Capital Fund projects. The ECCE Capital Fund is a state general obligation bond-funded grant program providing more than thirteen million dollars ($13,000,000) in funding for physical improvements to existing child care spaces and for the development of new licensed early childhood care and education facilities. This program is being administered by LISC’s Rhode Island Child Care and Early Learning Facilities Fund in partnership with the Department of Human Services (DHS). Without DHS support and their continued investment in the children of Rhode Island, neither of the projects below would have been possible.
