All Our Kin's Response to COVID-19

In response to the challenges that family child care educators are navigating, All Our Kin is excited to share a new publication, Open, Healthy Family Child Care Programs: A Family Child Care Provider Guide to Reopening and Staying Open During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

 This document provides concrete strategies to support family child care educators in running their programs during this global health crisis. The information in this publication builds on state and local health and safety regulations and should be used in conjunction with these. It’s intended for family child care educators who’ve decided to keep their programs open or are in the process of reopening in accordance with these regulations. You can access this publication HERE in English and HERE in Spanish!

All Our Kin recognizes the unique challenges family child care educators face during the COVID-19 crisis. Many educators are having to choose between economic security and risking their own physical health. We are committed to meeting the needs of family child care educators whether or not you choose to keep their program doors open.

All Our Kin has adapted our services to virtual and remote platforms, and our programming to the needs of family child care educators specifically in response to the coronavirus pandemic. Visit this link for further details on how exactly we have adapted our programming to this "new normal," including which programs are still running and on hold.
