The Early Childhood Education and Care Department (ECECD) and the New Mexico Finance Authority (NMFA) are partnering to offer low-interest, long-term loans that help child care providers build, expand, or improve facilities. With support from CRECER, this program makes affordable financing available to providers ready to make significant investments in their businesses and communities.

CRECER is a business support initiative for providers that want to grow high-quality child care.
