We’re pleased to announce the winners for the Let’s Move! Child Care State Challenge, a nationwide competition launched by the Administration for Children and Families and the National Association of Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies (NACCRRA) to reach more early education and child care providers and encourage state participation in the Let’s Move! Child Care (LMCC) initiative.
The Let’s Move! Child Care State Challenge provided states with the opportunity to be recognized in two categories:
Rhode Island - Category 1
LMCC State Challenge winner for having the highest percentage of licensed or legally operating early education and child care programs signed up as LMCC participants.
Idaho - Category 2
LMCC State Challenge winner for having the largest percentage of LMCC participants who successfully completed the initiative’s checklist quiz.
We commend the efforts of all states and territories for encouraging early education and child care providers to get involved in LMCC to improve the health of children in their care.
Providers from all states, Puerto Rico, the District of Columbia, and the Virgin Islands are participating in LMCC and completed the checklist quiz.
