Religious or Faith-Based Child Care

Faith-based organizations (FBOs) often provide child care programs that have an affiliation with a church, synagogue, temple, mosque, or other faith-based organization or group.

Faith-based child care centers provide religious instruction or include organized prayer or worship services. These centers may be either affiliated or unaffiliated with an FBO and they may or may not be located in buildings that belong to FBOs.
