About 4C for Children

The mission of 4C is to improve the quality, effectiveness and accessibility of early childhood education and care in the region so every child has a positive experience and a foundation for success in school and life. 4C was founded in 1972 to coordinate child care services for children. Working with other child-serving agencies, 4C continues to find new ways to meet the needs of families, child care providers and the community, and has offered more than 35 years of service. The agency focuses on linking parents to child care service options, educating the community about quality child care, and promoting nutritious meals in family child care homes. 4C also works to instruct child care providers on how to improve the quality of their care and advocates at all levels of government for quality child care services for all families. 4C has grown to serve a 23-county area in Southwest Ohio, Miami Valley, and Northern Kentucky.
