NEW YORK CHILD CARE HEALTH CONSULTANT NETWORK

Docs for Tots is working to bring together child care health consultants in a learning community to share resources and ideas and to advocate for the important opportunities to expand the workforce and promote health in early care and education settings.

We will be sharing and developing resources and communicating regularly with child care health consultants. Our goal is to offer technical assistance and training as we build our network.

With the support of the NYS Council on Children and Families, the NYS Early Childhood Advisory Council and Docs for Tots have partnered to launch a website dedicated to helping child care health consultants (CCHC) in NYS promote health in child care programs.

After signing up for nyscchcresources.org, CCHCs gain free access to:

• A series of videos modularized around five key health and safety topics

• NYS and national resources linked to each video

• Opportunities for support and technical assistance

• Blog series from Emily Leone, RN, C-PNP, with 12 years of CCHC experience in NYS

Funding was provided by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) under Grant #H25MC12970 Early Childhood Comprehensive Systems grant.
