United In Care is a grant-funded pilot project being run by United Way of Northern New Jersey designed to address the structural deficiencies within the child care system.
Its goal is to increase the availability of quality, affordable child care and early childhood education opportunities for working families identified as ALICE® (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed). To accomplish this, United In Care establishes an alliance that pairs two previously disconnected pillars of the child care system—highly rated centers and local family child care providers—to expand capacity, leverage a collective expertise, and share critical resources.
GCDC is proud to serve as the childcare center hub for the South Jersey alliance. For more information about the program, please visit United In Care’s website or feel free to email us directly.
Our United In Care Alliance
Through United In Care’s Alliance, GCDC partners with local Family Child Care Providers and supports these business owners to increase enrollment in a home-like setting for families who prefer smaller more intimate care for their child. GCDC provides materials, training, coaching and curriculum support as well as diapers, wipes and pull ups.
We are currently recruiting family child care providers for our alliance. If you are a family child care provider and looking to join a supportive network of other child care providers, please reach out to us for more information.
Our current FCC Partners are based in Glassboro, West Berlin and Riverside. If you're interested in a family child care option, please reach out to these providers directly.
