Champions for Quality Care & Education
“To
support each other as child care administrators in providing quality
programming for Wisconsin’s families.”
What is
WCCAA?
The Wisconsin Child Care Administrators Association (WCCAA) began in the
spring of 1976 and hosted its first conference in 1979. A need for an
organization committed to the promotion of excellence in child care
administration is our ongoing motivation. WCCAA is active at local,
regional, state, and national levels. WCCAA is represented on many
advisory committees and boards and provides quality trainings throughout the
year, including a statewide conference held in February.
