Step 1: Express your interest
Childcare centers interested in joining SCCIP can easily complete a short online form. We'll collect basic information such as your center's name, contact details, license status, enrollment capacity, staff size, and program type (e.g., center, home-based, faith-based). This helps us determine eligibility and initiate the onboarding process efficiently.
Step 2: Onboarding and agreement
Once eligibility is confirmed, centers will complete a Participation Agreement and undergo a program orientation, available virtually or in-person. During this stage, we'll review the bonus structure, reporting requirements, and compliance expectations to ensure a clear understanding of the partnership. We are committed to transparency and support throughout the process.
