resources

The Early Learning Resource Centers merged the work of Child Care Information Services (CCIS) Agencies and the Regional Keys to create one door to an enhanced resource and referral system for communities seeking early learning services, subsidized child care services and other early learning supports. 

Here, you’ll find hundreds of bilingual multi-media tools to help kids and families enrich and expand their knowledge during the early years of birth through six, a critical window for brain development. Our resources engage kids and adults in everyday moments and daily routines—from teaching early math and literacy concepts, to encouraging families to eat nutritious foods, to serious topics such as divorce and food insecurity.

CPSC works to save lives and keep families safe by reducing the unreasonable risk of injuries and deaths associated with consumer products and fulfilling its vision to be the recognized global leader in consumer product safety. CPSC does this by:

  • Issuing and enforcing mandatory standards or banning consumer products if no feasible standard would adequately protect the public;

  • Obtaining the recall of products and arranging for a repair, replacement or refund for recalled products;

  • Researching potential product hazards; 

  • Developing voluntary standards with standards organizations, manufacturers and businesses;

  • Informing and educating consumers directly and through traditional, online, and social media and by working with foreign, state and local governments and private organizations; and

  • Educating manufacturers worldwide about our regulations, supply chain integrity and development of safe products.
