Childcare Resources of Indian River has secured $1,958,600 in New Markets Tax Credits financing to support the organization’s new Campus of Early Childhood Excellence in downtown Vero Beach.

Childcare Resources is addressing that challenge locally by creating a purpose-built campus.

More than 185 participants, including members, their families and guests, and Childcare Resources staff, took part in the April 3 event, enjoying a scenic course, breakfast, and awards ceremony.
