A provider-owned and led business to elevate the family child care industry.
CoRise is a technology-enabled business service company that will offer products and services that not only ease providers’ administrative load and reduce other business-related burdens, but also lower their costs, and create access to new forms of revenue for greater financial security. CoRise uses the cooperative model to center providers in the decision-making process and ensure responsiveness to their needs. The cooperative launched with a set of products requested by providers, which will have a meaningful impact on their financial and personal welfare.
Family child care is one of the most vulnerable – and currently shrinking – segments of the child care industry. FCCPs face an untenable workload and often receive poverty wages.
