contents Family Day Care: An Option for Rural Communities. Travis, Nancy Perreault, Joe Child Caregivers Family Day Care Low Income Rural Areas School Age Day Care This publication examines the establishment of family day care systems, particularly with regard to rural communities. After an introduction outlining the positive aspects of family day care, information is presented on (1) the Child Care Food Program, (2) the organization of training programs for family day care providers and establishment of a toy-lending library, and (3) the setting up of a child care resource and referral service.
