Activities or mission (Part I)

Westchester County's leading authority on child care, the Child Care Council of Westchester, Inc. is one of the largest child care resource and referral agencies in the state of New York. A nonprofit, 501(c)(3) agency, the Council plays a unique role within the county, delivering a variety of unique services including: Linking parents to child care via information and referrals and help obtaining financial assistance; expanding the supply of quality child care programs and providers through technical assistance, training, monitoring of regulatory compliance and start-up help; support to the workplace through on-site seminars, guidance on dependent care issues; policy and public education to raise awareness of the benefits and value of a strong early care and education system; providing and administering child care scholarships for those seeking financial assistance.

  • Provider Services Department Accomplishments 7/1/24 - 6/30/25. Registration Services: The Registration Department offers three main services to Child Care Providers: Processing Initial Family Day Care (FDC) & School Age Child Care (SACC) Applications, Processing FDC & SACC Renewal Applications and performing inspections of FDC/SACC Program. During the period from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025: We served 23 initial FDC applicants (9 - FDC Approved and 14 - FDC Withdrawn), and 26 SACC applicants (19 - SACC approved and 7 -SACC Withdrawn). The challenge with initial applications has been applicant follow through. Many applicants applied and found that they could not meet OCFS guidelines in the required time or the purposed program site did not meet regulatory requirements. The Registration Department renewed 26 active FDC & SACC Programs. We assisted them in the process of renewing their registrations (5-FDC and 21-SACC). The Registration Department performed 864 inspections of FDC/SACC Program (230-FDC and 634-SACC). All inspections were conducted and closed within the approved timeframes. The greatest challenge with inspecting child care programs during this period was the increased frequency of the required inspections beginning in January of 2024, requiring each program to be inspected quarterly. Legally Exempt Services: The Legally Exempt Department offers two main services to legally exempt child care providers. The department is contracted to process initial applications, renewal applications and conduct annual inspections. During the period starting July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025: We processed 511 legally exempt provider applications. We accomplished our goals due to the work efficiency in the department. The challenge with processing the initial enrollment applications has been the timeframes and high turnover among providers. The challenge with processing the renewal enrollment applications has been the delay in providers submitting their renewal material on time and changes that need to be made to the enrollment. The Legally Exempt Department performed 71 inspections. Child and Adult Care Food Program: The Child and Adult Care Food Program helps providers pay for meals and snacks served to children up to age 13 enrolled in their child care programs. As the sponsor of the contract, we are responsible for determining if meals served meet nutritional requirements, conducting monitoring visits, and providing training to participating providers. During the period from July 1, 2024 - June 30, 2025 CACFP staff processed 3308 menus, reimbursing providers for the healthy meals and snacks served to children. The CACFP staff conducted 781 food-monitoring visits and added 65 new providers to the program.

These grants focused on literacy, language and the cognitive and social emotional development of the children. * In early 2025, 19 programs, including eight center-based classrooms from six child care centers and thirteen group family providers, participated in our Early Literacy Book Bag program funded by the Sexauer Family Foundation. The project was created to promote early literacy for low-income families. This year, families were each provided a home library of 7-8 age-appropriate books and a book bag. The families received training and were also given literature on reading at home with young children. Programs participated in a training and technical assistance project, received an assortment of diverse books and language enhancing materials for their programs.* From July 2024 to June 2025, Mental Health Consultants worked with caregivers in 41 center-based and family childcare programs. The specialists worked on improving the capacity for the caregivers to meet the social and emotional needs of young children. Three support groups for early childhood professionals met virtually and in- person throughout the year, giving support and encouragement to the valuable caregivers. The Council's two Business Development Specialists worked closely with child care providers throughout the year to help them meet New York State grant requirements. Their support included assistance with expense reports and audit preparation for the Deserts, Stabilization, and Workforce Retention grants. From July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025, they completed 813 instances of basic technical assistance and provided 95 hours of intensive technical assistance (defined as in-person support lasting at least one hour). In addition, they offered 20 business and computer training courses to 92 providers, helping strengthen their operations and overall capacity.

The first 25 listed. Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

The 10 largest by cash amount. The API serves every itemized grant.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
