Child Care Counts

Making Quality Care Affordable

aka Child Care Counts/Geotan Corporation   |   Bethesda, MD   |  www.dcchildcarecounts.org

Mission

The mission of Child Care Counts is to help low-income working families in the greater Washington DC metro area afford quality, stable child care. We do this by providing child care scholarships to low-income families who do not qualify for child care vouchers. We believe that when parents can afford a quality child care center, they are more successful in the workforce and as a result, have greater opportunity for career satisfaction and financial stability. For their children, the core belief that drives our mission is that when children have the benefit of safe, enriching care in the early years, they have a better chance of being successful in school, and better chances of being able to lead a successful, productive life.
