Choosing child care is one of the biggest decisions families make during their child’s early years. Nevada Silver State Stars Quality Rating and Improvement System (QRIS), supported by The Children’s Cabinet gives families helpful tools to make informed decisions about early learning programs while also supporting child care providers in improving the quality of care they provide. Together, these efforts help create better outcomes for children and families across Nevada.
Stable housing is a critical foundation for a child’s healthy development. Recognizing this, First 5 Nevada has added housing programs and resources designed to support families at every stage - whether they are seeking emergency assistance, long-term housing solutions or general guidance.
