How the Program Works

  • Interested family child care providers call the 4-C program.
  • Staff make it easy to join the program.
  • Providers choose to send their menus to 4-C by mail or internet.
  • Checks are quickly issued to providers to help pay for the children’s healthy meals and snacks.
  • Providers who qualify may also be paid for meals served to their own children.
