Roots-to-Wings Family Provider Program
The Roots-to-Wings Family Provider Program is designed to support DVHHS licensed child care providers in Windom who are starting, expanding, or strengthening their child care businesses. Through a combination of forgivable loans, low-interest financing, and grants, the program helps cover costs such as facility improvements, equipment, technology, licensing requirements, and other expenses needed to create and maintain quality child care services.
Licensed providers and individuals pursuing licensure are encouraged to review program guidelines and apply for assistance. By supporting local child care providers, the program aims to increase the availability of quality child care, create new infant and toddler care opportunities, and strengthen Windom's workforce and families.
