Congratulations to Edlina Lane!

DECAL awarded EXPAND grants to two family child care learning home providers including our very own Edlina Lane! Congratulations on this important win for your program, families you serve, and family child care in Georgia.

Supported by research and analysis showing that the availability of high-quality child care and early education plays a key role in Georgia’s workforce development and economic growth, DECAL created the EXPAND Grants. The awards serve an identified need shared by many families, employers, and communities for child care services outside of the traditional hours of Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
