Educare Boone County is a free, voluntary resource for early childhood professionals and parents. If you are not receiving on-site home visits and would like to, please call 884-1497.
In the future our website will have a new look. Please be patient while we revise our data.
The Educare newsletter will be arriving at your program electronically this year. If you don't have an email address, please notify Jo Ann at 884-1714, so that we can send you a hard copy. We are doing this to help keep our costs down so that our services to providers in Boone County can remain at our current levels.
The July Get Together At the Rock will be held on July 27th at 1400 Rock Quarry Road. A full schedule will be announced soon. Registrations make it easier to notify people if there is a cancellation, so beginning in January, we will require registration for our “Get Togethers at the Rock”.

"Teach Early Childhood ~ Touch the Future"
Preparing children to meet the challenges of tomorrow requires the
entire community. Parents, families, early childhood and school-age teachers and others work together to provide learning opportunities for children.
Raising the bar is especially important for child care programs. For at-risk children, receiving care from a quality child care program significantly increases their chances of entering school with the skills they need to succeed. Supporting the community to help children develop and grow is at the heart of Educare services.
Through our relocation to the Center for Family Policy and Research on the Campus of the University of Missouri, Columbia, we are able to direct more resources and opportunities toward serving at-risk children and families.
Educare Boone County does not discriminate in our services on the basis of race, color, national origin, age, sex, handicap, disability or religious belief.
Educare Boone County is funded through the Department of Social Services and is affiliated with the University of Missouri, Columbia.
