CCDS was incorporated in 1977 to sponsor the USDA Child Care Food Program. Now known as the CACFP, this federal funding administered by CCDS provides aid to family or group day care homes. The funding allows for the provision of nutritious foods that contribute to the wellness, healthy growth, and development of children from 6 weeks through 12 years old.
As the single largest sponsor of the CACFP in family child care homes in Oregon, in 2016 thousands of children received more than 4.3 million meals and snacks through the efforts of the CCDS program. In 2016 CCDS distributed $ 6.7 million to providers and received $700K for administering this program. Home visit staff performed 2597 mostly unannounced visits to participating providers offering support and training. CCDS ceased administration of the CACFP in 2020 but continues offering online training support services to child care professionals. Click on the "Training" button above for details.
