Agency Sponsored Child Care Centers (CCCs) (Field) Providing on-site or near-site child care represents a major commitment of resources on the part of an organization and may not be a desirable option for all components. Factors such as facility location, employee population, or budgets might prevent organizations from undertaking such a project. If an organization believes its employees' needs to be great enough, it may consider underwriting a center for the exclusive use of its employees, entering into a cooperative agreement with other public organizations in its area to develop a consortium, or purchasing spaces for employees in existing public centers. (GSA may be contacted for more detailed information.) Several USDA agencies have established or co-established CCCs throughout the Nation. These Centers are in the following locations: Idaho | Maryland | Oregon | Washington USDA Child Development Center (Headquarters) In April 1999, the Children's Discovery Centers of America, Inc. began providing the services in the USDA Child Development Center located in the Yates Building at 201 14th St., SW, Washington, D.C. 20250. |
