Promoting Quality Child Care

8/24/2020 –To the Clients and Providers of the Child Care Resource Center:

The circumstances surrounding COVID-19 have forced us all to change how we operate in our day-to-day lives. We are all making adjustments to reduce the impact of the virus on our communities. For the most current Executive Orders and announcement made by the West Virginia Governor, Jim Justice, please visit: https://governor.wv.gov/Pages/WV-COVID-19-actions-and-executive-orders.aspx

The Child Care Resource Center is currently working remotely to help reduce the possible exposure and spread of the virus. Our Wheeling, Morgantown and Fairmont offices are still taking calls to service our eight counties, but remain operating remotely. General questions can be emailed to CCRC@wv.org or you may contact your case manager via email for more case specific questions. Their contact information can be found on our About Us page.

Please take a moment to review the COVID-19 Information and Resources to the right to see how our state is assisting providers and clients during this pandemic. Please check back periodically to see if new information has been added. You are also encouraged to visit the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention website to learn more about what you can do to help stop the spread. The CDC recommendations for schools and child care programs can be found by visiting https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/community/schools-childcare/index.html

In the meantime, we at the Child Care Resource Center and Catholic Charities WVa hope you and those you care about are maintaining social distancing, wearing a mask in public settings, practicing good hand washing often, and looking out for the good of all in our communities. Stay safe. Stay well. It will take us all making changes to have the greatest impact on the well-being of the great state of West Virginia.

Cheerfully,
