Parent Aware Curriculum
Parent Aware core trainings will run as scheduled with one or more participants registered through Child Care Aware.
The Rule of 1
When is Parent Aware coming to my
area?
School Readiness, Head Start and
Accredited programs throughout the state can now participate
in Parent Aware through the
Accelerated Pathways to Ratings (APR)
pathway.
Non-Accredited, Licensed Child Care programs (centers
and family child care) can participate in
Parent Aware through the Fully-Rated
Pathway beginning the year their county
opens.
