(March 2007) - Parents have a new tool to help them find quality child care in Kentucky. Find Kentucky Kid Care is a toll-free number that links parents and caregivers of children to their area Child Care Resource and Referral (CCR&R) agencies. The Division of Child Care in the Kentucky Cabinet for Health and Family Services (CHFS) administers the toll-free line. Based on their area code of origin, calls will be automatically routed to a local CCR&R. Only out-of-state calls are not directly transferred. Local office hours are generally 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
The toll-free phone number is (877) 316-3552.
