Information on the Child Development Center (CDC), Family Child Care (FCC), School Age Services (SAS), and Middle School/Teen (MS/T) after-school, evening and weekend programming, Child and Youth Individual and Team Sports and SKIESUnlimited is available to eligible patrons. Our knowledgeable staff has general information and flyers on all current CYS Services programming. After completing registration through Central Enrollment Registry (CER) the parents can enroll in programs with vacancies. In order to complete the registration paperwork, the patron needs to provide the following information:

• Sponsor/spouse name, social security number, rank, duty station, duty phone number, e-mail address and cell phone numbers.
• Home address and land line and cell phone number.
• Children's name, date of birth, gender and social security number.
• 2 emergency designees other than the sponsor or spouse with phone numbers.
• Immunizations/shot records for children kindergarten age and younger.
• Physicals/health assessments for children grade five and younger.

**For families enrolling in the CDC, Part Day Preschool (PDPS), SAS or for families requesting subsidies in the FCC program who have income $34,000 or less, proof of income including LESs/paystub is required to determine total family income.

**For Sole/Duty Military families, sponsor must turn in a DA form 5035 signed by their commander from the Family Care Plan within 30 days.

CER coodinates with the CDC, FCC and SAS to establish and maintain waiting lists. Vacancies are monitored and children are placed through the CER office. Families can put their children on a waiting list prior to birth or as soon as they know they will be coming to Fort Leavenworth.

OS uses the information received from the registration packets to determine whether a child needs to attend a Special Needs Resource Accommodation Process (SNAP) meeting which is overseen by the Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP). The parent will attend a meeting and share information with an interdisciplinary team to determine appropriate placement and/or accommodations in CYS programs.

Parents who are interested in volunteering in Child and Youth programs should contact OS. This includes volunteer coaches or someone who is interested in working four or more hours a week on a regular basis in a CYS Services program. OS will outline volunteer requirements and initiate the necessary background clearances.

OS provides opportunites for parent education, parent participation and family special events. OS oversees the Parent Advisory Forum with an on-line forum and quarterly group meetings to ensure parents are up-to-date on CYS Services information and can have input into policies and practices for CYS Services programs.

Eligible patrons for the Army Child, Youth and School Services programs include military, DoD civilians (NAF and APF), Reservists and National Guard on active status and DoD contract employees.
