Business Basics
This 12-week program teaches women about running a residential child care business — lessons cover everything from CPR and state regulations to budgeting and marketing strategies.
This two-page report introduces a program designed to help women open their own residential child care businesses. Called CARE, the initiative delivers a rare win-win: employment and empowerment for at-risk women and a new economic anchor for financially-fragile communities.
In the mid 1990s, the Women’s Self-Employment Project launched the CARE Entrepreneurial Training Program. The goal was to help women transition from welfare to work while giving local families more options for high-quality, affordable child care.
