The Iowa Insurance Division has launched its Care4Kids initiative.
Aimed at educating child care directors and home-based providers about state resources available to them, the six-event series launched Saturday, April 22, in Des Moines. Additional events will be held in Waterloo, Council Bluffs, Sioux City, Cedar Rapids and Davenport.
“These sessions will give the more than 4,000 child care providers across the state an opportunity to hone their financial literacy, dive deep into insurance options, and other resources in a format that has been specifically tailored for them,” said Kelly Garcia, director of the Iowa Department of Health and Human Services, in a news release.
The Care4Kids initiative is part of the Iowa Insurance Division’s Save4Later financial literacy program.
“When it comes to running a business there are several questions you may have regarding your insurance options,” said Iowa Insurance Commissioner Doug Ommen in a release. “These events are designed to provide child care providers with the valuable resources and insurance options they may not be aware of.”
