First Children’s Finance
Increase the supply of child care in rural Minnesota, using an economic development perspective to leverage local resources, investments and public-private partnerships to increase the number of child care slots available to families
First Children’s Finance is working to address challenges related to a net loss of 15,000 child care slots in rural Minnesota in recent years. As the demand for child care increases, we’re closing the gap by partnering with rural communities to identify innovative solutions that leverage local resources and strengthen the local economy. The result is community-owned, right-sized solutions that increase financially sustainable child care.
