FUNDERS OF ORANGE COUNTY
Child Care Connections of Orange County is predominantly funded through a generous grant from the Low Income Investment Fund.

The Low Income Investment Fund (LIIF)
Now more than two decades old, the Low Income Investment Fund (LIIF) provides financing and technical assistance to hundreds of community organizations serving the nation's poorest and hardest-to-reach populations. Currently, LIIF operates in three regions of the United States: Northern California, Southern California and the New York City Metropolitan Area, with offices in San Francisco, Los Angeles and New York.

LIIF is dedicated to creating pathways of opportunity for low income people and communities. LIIF pursues this aim by providing capital and technical assistance to help low income communities finance and build facilities for education, affordable and supportive housing, child care and other community revitalization programs.

LIIF's ABCD program is building and supporting a statewide network of streamlined local facility development resources through its Constructing Connections program.  Constructing Connections programs are in several California counties.  Each Constructing Connections program assists child care projects through the facilities development process from planning through construction by providing technical assistance and resources.
