Guided by a dedicated staff and a committed Board of Directors, our organization was established in 1975 as the Humboldt Child Care Council, and has grown to employ over 200 full and part time staff who cover more than 4,000 square miles in providing an array of child care, behavioral health, and special needs services.

Our passion for the well being and success of children and families in our community has been rooted in diverse representation on our Board, in our staff, and from our partnerships from almost every public and private sector of Humboldt County, including local industry, higher education, private business, healthcare, and our local tribal nations. We are dedicated to helping children, families and parents find and make best use of the resources within and around them while strengthening our community’s ability to improve the quality of life
