An important component of CICK’s work is to develop and broadly communicate to policymakers, funders, community leaders and others the importance of quality facilities, and strategies for developing and financing them. Child Care Facilities: Quality By Design makes the case that a well-designed facility is an integral part of a high quality child care program. CICK has also prepared a comprehensive series of how-to resource guides and tools on all aspects of designing, developing and financing quality child care space.
