SUMMARY:Child Care Solutions for Climate Resilience
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Kitty Lenhart\, MEd RD\, Child Health and Nutrition Grant Projects Coordinator and Setel Holden-Villars\, Child Health and Nutrition Specialist \nEvery year\, our childcare providers tell us the same story: “The weather feels different now—and the kids feel it too.” Some days it’s the intense heat that settles into play yards and classrooms. Other days it’s the smoky air drifting in from distant wildfires\, making it hard to know whether children can safely go outside. And sometimes it’s simply the uncertainty—Is today a day when outdoor play is safe? \nAcross our region\, families and childcare programs are feeling the daily effects of a changing climate. These shifts can be subtle or sudden\, but they all add up to real challenges for the adults caring for young children. Heat waves arrive earlier and last longer. Air quality fluctuates more often. Outdoor environments—so important for learning and well‑being—are becoming harder to use consistently.-quality awareness and strategies for reducing stress during climate-related disruptions. \nOur workshop will be focused on helping providers understand how climate change is affecting early learning and child health. These sessions will cover topics such as heat‑safety practices\, air‑quality awareness\, and strategies for reducing stress during climate‑related disruptions. \nRegister here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81913038564?pwd=DOj5zVExuETq6xBPlaX0uvAca9P9s4.1

SUMMARY:Are You Confident in Your Facility's Compliance with California Title 22 Reporting Requirements?
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Carla Fernandes-Goes\, Child Care Advocate from the Community Care Licensing Division  \nNavigating the complexities of what\, when\, and how to report incidents can be a daunting task\, even for the most experienced administrators and staff. Failure to comply with California’s reporting requirements can result in significant consequences\, including citations\, civil penalties\, and\, in some cases\, license revocation. Understanding these requirements is essential to protecting the health and safety of children and staff while maintaining your facility’s compliance. \nThis comprehensive workshop is designed to demystify the reporting requirements outlined in Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations. Participants will gain the essential knowledge and practical skills needed to ensure timely\, accurate\, and thorough reporting while fostering a culture of safety and regulatory compliance within their facility. \nJoin us to strengthen your understanding of Title 22 reporting requirements and take advantage of a dedicated Q&A session at the end of the workshop\, where you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and receive guidance on real-world reporting scenarios. \nRegister here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/Lh5ns34FSzCl7-Q5TSKo_w
