The Golden State YMCA is warning parents that some of its after-school child care programs at 13 elementary schools in Visalia might be closed at the end of August as a result of state budget cuts.
All sites will open the first day of school Aug. 13 and will stay open through the month.
Parents are asked to enroll now so the YMCA can determine whether there will be enough participation to keep the sites open after Sept. 1. If enough families sign up at the full-day rate of $13 per day per child, the sites can stay open, said executive director Tim Foster. The state program that was cut helped low-income families pay the child-care bill.
