The project was announced last September, and funding was awarded after the City made a $3 Million grant application to the Province’s Childcare BC New Spaces Fund. An additional $1 Million in funding has been provided through the Union of BC Municipalities (UBCM) Community Child Care Space Creation Program. The City’s grant application demonstrated the need for more local childcare spaces, as identified in a City Childcare Needs Assessment, which was informed by a survey of more than 800 residents in 2019 and presented to Council last year.

The YMCA Park House Care and Early Learning Centre is scheduled to open in late 2021.
