What We Do

United Way of Weld County helps businesses assess and set goals for creating family-friendly workplace practices.
In addition, companies can participate in the Family Business Solutions program, in which they designate a certain amount up to which they will contribute for child care provision. Full-time employees with children who are eligible for medical benefits at enrolled companies can then qualify for Family Business Solutions.
Each qualifying family receives assistance for children aged 12 and under. United Way of Weld County acts as the liaison between child care providers and the company. The provider bills United Way each month, and United Way in turn bills companies quarterly for applicable company employee child care costs.
Providing child care benefits doesn’t just help the employee. When companies provide child care, employee absences decrease by up to 30% and job turnover declines by as much as 60%. Participating companies can also earn a tax credit!
