BACKGROUND

The Gaston County Department of Health and Human Services received additional funds from the Partnership for Children of Lincoln and Gaston Counties for the Public Health Childcare Health Consultant Program.  The funds are provided through the Smart Start State Grant.  The Childcare Health Consultant Program promotes healthy and safe environments for children in child care settings through consultation, training, and technical assistance services.  These funds will be used to support the Childcare Health Consultants’ training and program supplies.  Gaston County has over 100 daycares that require support in the areas of staff education, nutrition, sanitation, communicable disease outbreaks, immunization requirements and support when undergoing licensing processes.  These are Non-County funds.
