Volunteer
Child Care in Unit Settings (VCCUS) |
|
VCCUS is a volunteer-based childcare
program that allows for on-site care during meetings and events organized by
military units, Army Community Service groups or Morale Welfare and
Recreation.
Through VCCUS, Outreach Services will
provide childcare training to volunteers from the military unit or
organization. Therefore, the program is designed to allow the exchange of
free and temporary childcare services during unit sessions when the demand
for childcare is high, or when Child Development Center services are not
available.
Parents and guardians of children in
VCCUS must be attending the same on-post function, and must remain at the
site while their child is under volunteer care. Units that are interested in
the VCCUS program may call Judy
Cobb at Outreach Services at (706) 545-2079/DSN: 835-2079.

Short
Term Alternative Child Care (STACC) |
|
The STACC program is used for on-site
childcare during meetings and social gatherings that meet the needs of the
Fort Benning community. These events may include, but are not limited to:
Enlisted Spouses Club and Officers' Spouses Club events, volunteer
appreciation luncheons, religious functions and family readiness groups.
Child and Youth Services provide the
staff to care for children between the ages 6 weeks and 12 years during the
event. STACC increases the capability of Child Development Services hourly
care program as well as making meeting attendance more attractive to
parents. On-site care is convenient for parents and all childcare staff
members are trained and qualified through CYS.
Organizations who wish to take
advantage of STACC during their meetings can make arrangements through
Outreach Services. For more information, call
Judy Cobb at (706) 545-2079/DSN: 835-2079
