Whether you're a seasoned executive or an emerging leader, you'll find valuable insights, connections, and opportunities to help shape the future of Child Care.

Is there a cost to attend the Summit?

No! The conference is 100% free. TOOTRiS is proud to fully sponsor the Summit as part of our commitment to supporting CCR&Rs. There's no registration fee, and all meals are covered. You just need to cover your travel and stay (discounted rates for attendees).

Can I attend the Summit virtually?

This year we are exclusively in-person to ensure everyone enjoys the full experience, but we have done everything possible to make it affordable with specially discounted hotel rates and no fees to attend the Summit. We hope this enables CCR&Rs to bring as many team members as possible.
