The purpose of the California Child Care (CACC) Program is to teach individuals who work in the childcare field the knowledge and skills they need to keep children who are in their care safe and healthy.  This state-specific course was developed in response to California Government Code, Training Standards for Child Care Providers, Title 22, Division 9, Chapter 1 and satisfies the requirements as stated in that code.  The American Red Cross program is recognized by the State of California as the standard for this training.

All childcare providers will benefit from attending this program.  However, there are childcare providers in California who must take the training (any person who provides childcare in a licensed child day-care facility).
