In-person meetings: Help shape North Dakota's child care rules!

Early Childhood Licensing, working with the Child Care Services Advisory Committee (created under House Bill 1119, 69th Legislative Assembly), is starting the process of reviewing and updating the rules for licensed child care providers.

We need your input!

Your feedback will help make the rules clearer, less complicated and better aligned with the needs of providers while keeping children safe and healthy. We want to hear about your challenges and ideas for improvement.
