Financial Assistance

Through the Early Childhood Professional Development program we are able to offer scholarship assistance to anyone seeking education in order to provide "community based" early childhood service. This does NOT include persons working in the public schools or for Head Start programs that are a part of the public school system. Applicants must live, work or attend school in Larimer County to qualify for this scholarship.
