Diverse Delivery partnerships are when high quality centers have space to expand seats for birth to four age children. An example of current diverse delivery partnership models can be seen in the EBR Parish School System in which they are funding several diverse delivery seats across their network using various grant sources.

Diverse delivery partnerships offer the following advantages:

• Builds capacity to serve additional children
• Provides additional options to families
• Increases enrollment at childcare sites
• Strengthens early childhood community partnerships

LAFORCE is working with several local entities to seek additional funding to increase diverse delivery partnerships in the community.
