NYS Parent Portal
Welcome to CCF’s Parent Portal. To support healthy kids and happy families, we have compiled statewide and national resources for new parents (birth, adoption, foster). The Portal provides guidance for families with children with multiple needs, tools to help find child care, and information on how to support young children through the early years.
