Early Head Start-Child Care Partnership (EHS-CCP) 

With a federal grant awarded in 2014, the CFE was able to expand its reach and provide additional resources to 504 low-income infants and toddlers with high-quality early care and education in 19 programs throughout our community. Three of these programs are operated by the CFE at Miami-Dade County Public Schools: Ethel Beckford/Richmond Elementary, Lillie C. Evans K-8, Carol City Elementary as well as the Lotus House.

The United Way Miami Early Head Start-Child Care Partnership (EHS-CCP) is a federally funded program that provides low-income infants, toddlers and their families with high-quality early education, health, nutrition and family support services. Through this partnership, we enhance care and learning by equipping partner sites across Miami-Dade with essential educational and professional development resources.
