Conway Cradle Care
History:
Conway Cradle Care (CCC) was established in 1995 to assist teen parents who were forced to drop out of school due to lack of support for their situation and/or lack of money for childcare.

CCC started as a mission of First Presbyterian Church of Conway. To become eligible for grants and donations, as well as to expand programming, CCC gained 501(c)(3) status as an independent nonprofit organization. First Presbyterian Church is still a strong supporter of the mission of Cradle Care, and houses CCC at no expense to the organization. CCC continues an ongoing partnership with the United Way of Central AR, Arkansas Community Foundation, & CAPCA. CCC is supported by local businesses, community organizations, professionals, churches, and individuals. The support from the community continues to the present.

The Board is a working board and is made up of volunteers representing diverse segments of the community.



The Need for CCC Continues:
Research indicates that, compared to those who delay childbearing, teen mothers are more likely to drop out of school, remain unmarried, and live in poverty. Their children are more likely to be born with low birth weight, grow up poor, live in single-parent households, and enter the child welfare system. Daughters of teen mothers are more likely to become teen parents themselves, and sons of teen mothers are more likely to be incarcerated.
