CFP along with partners Columbus Public Schools, Platte Valley Literacy Association, Columbus Emergency Relief, Community Prevention and Columbus Public Library were trained in Feb. 2025 on the translation tool, World Wide Technology. This tool can translate speech-to-speech, speech-to-text, text-to-speech and text-to-text allowing us to communicate with nearly anyone.

Monthly meetings occur for the CFP Access to Childcare team a.k.a. In January 2025 we provided a survey to all licensed childcare providers and centers to determine their interest in joining our monthly meetings. Sixteen providers were added to our team already in existence. The day of the week and time of the day to meet was altered to best fit the requests of the childcare providers. As a result our team meetings moved from the third Thursday of the month from 11 a.m. - 12 p.m. to the third Monday of the month during naptime 1:15 - 2:15 p.m. Meetings are recorded and shared out with team members that are not able to join us.
