The Family Childcare Project
The Family Childcare Project (FCP) is a career development program geared specifically to the needs of Louisville’s refugee population. The purpose of the FCP is to assist refugee women in obtaining self-employment as registered family childcare providers, while creating affordable, culturally and linguistically accessible childcare options for refugee women who choose to enter the workforce.
Refugee women participating in the FCP will complete a training course that provides them with hands-on training in child development; health, safety and nutrition, and business operation and management. Once the participants complete the training course, they will receive individual assistance in starting a Registered Family Childcare Business in their home.
The Family Childcare Program promotes self-sufficiency, allowing providers to earn income while enabling other women to overcome childcare barriers and go to work.
