Missouri Childhood Resource and Referral (MCRR) exists to make that process easier, more accessible, coordinated, and connected. **What We’re Seeing** Families are looking for: - Clear guidance on subsidy applications and renewals - Help understanding timelines, requirements, and next steps Providers are looking for: - Support in helping families stay eligible - Tools to maintain consistent enrollment - Reliable partners to reduce administrative burdens **What This Means** The need for coordinated, statewide support has never been greater. Both families and providers benefit from having a single, trusted place to turn for accurate information and hands-on assistance. **How MCRR Helps** MCRR offers: - Statewide call center support with quick response times - Assistance navigating child care subsidy applications and renewals - Connections to community resources such as food, housing, and utilities In addition, Regional Community Partners (RCPs) strengthen this support with in-person and localized guidance in high-subsidy areas across the state. **Why It Matters** When families can access child care and successfully navigate the system, they stay engaged in the workforce. When providers have stable enrollment, they can operate more effectively. MCRR connects both, helping strengthen Missouri’s child care system and workforce at the same time. **We’re Here to Help** Families and providers can contact MCRR at 573-415-8605 for support with subsidy navigation and community resources. ---   Explore our other Child Care Aware® of Missouri resources: [Clock Hour Training](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/free-clock-hour-training) [Scholarships for Educators](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/scholarships-for-educators) [Child Care Health and Wellness](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/child-care-nutrition-and-physical-activity) [Family Child Care Network](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/family-child-care-network) [Leadership Development Opportunities](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/leadership-development-opportunities) [Missouri Office of Childhood Updates](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/missouri-office-of-childhood-updates) [Show Me Child Care Resources](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/show-me-child-care-resources) [Support Child Care Aware® of Missouri](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/support-child-care-aware) [Community Data](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/community-data) [Join Our Team](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/join-our-team) [Resources to Build Your Business ](https://partnerpublication.mochildcareaware.org/partner-publication/tag/resources-to-build-your-business)     #### About - Menu Item One - Menu Item Two - Menu Item Three #### Services - Menu Item One - Menu Item Two - Menu Item Three #### News - Menu Item One - Menu Item Two - Menu Item Three Follow us on Facebook Follow us on LinkedIn Follow us on Twitter Follow us on Instagram
