Purpose: To recognize childcare centers and homes for meeting best practice standards in nutrition, breastfeeding, physical activity, and screen time reduction.
This project is funded by grant from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). The recognition is scheduled to launch in the summer of 2023.
Instructions:
- Fill out this survey with contact information for one or two people from your organization.
- In a few days, those people will receive a login to our REDCap system to access the full application.
- Go to the Record Status Dashboard to access the checklists for the four areas to indicate which benchmarks your childcare meets.
- On the last tab, use the summary of benchmarks reached to see which level you qualify for. Let MDH know that your application is ready for review.
There are two application deadlines: June 15 and December 15th. MDH will process completed applications after those two dates each year.
