Child Care Links operates in the education administration sector, functioning as a conduit between government social service agencies and families. It helps income-eligible families access funds to pay for child care and provides guidance on locating quality care, while offering individualized support and education to child care providers, parents, and employers. The organization also delivers free child care referrals to families in the Tri-Valley area and functions as both a resource and referral service and an alternative payment program. Headquartered in Pleasanton with satellite offices in Oakland and Fremont, the organization serves communities across Alameda County, including Pleasanton, Livermore, Dublin, and Sunol; Oakland and nearby cities; and Fremont, Newark, and Union City. In addition to subsidized child care and referrals, it provides education and support services to providers and families, with service scope influenced by funding. The group participates in local committees, disseminates data on child care supply and demand, and advises on strategies to address community needs; in early 2018 it launched a Diaper Pantry to broaden support.
