The City of Richmond is developing a 10 year Child Care Strategy and is seeking input from Richmond residents, parents and guardians, and child care providers to help identify current and future child care needs.

The goals of the strategy are to:

• Hear from residents, parents & guardians, caregivers and those who work in child care to help us understand what the current and future needs for child care in Richmond. The details you share will inform many important aspects of the strategy.
• Help us create a set of priorities and actions for child care.
• Provide a framework to ensure high-quality, accessible and affordable child care options continue to be available in Richmond.

Here's how you can participate:

There are a few ways you can share your feedback anonymously:
