The Burton CDC is accredited by the Early Learning Coalition of Miami-Dade/Monroe, a nonprofit organization dedicated to ensuring availability of early care and education for children. Founded in 2000, the Coalition is among 31 similar organizations in the State of Florida established following the enactment of the School Readiness Act, which consolidated Florida’s early learning services into one integrated program.

The Burton CDC is accredited by Wesley House Family Services for financial assistance in meeting tuition and student fees. Eligibility for assistance is based on a number of factors, including household income and number of family members.    Early Learning Coalition
