We are thrilled to announce that the Oswego County Opportunities offices on George Street have officially been certified as a Lactation Friendly Public Space!

This certification reflects OCO’s dedication to supporting local families by providing a welcoming, private, and accessible environment to feed their children with confidence, while honoring a deeper commitment to accessibility and empowerment. Ultimately, creating these supportive environments is key to fostering a healthier, more inclusive community.

Way to go, OCO, for serving as a model for our county! 👏

🌟 Calling All Parent Leaders in Oswego County! 🌟

Do you have a child (or children) ages 0–5 and a passion for making a difference for families in our community? The Oswego County Early Childhood Alliance (OCECA) is looking for parent leaders who want to volunteer their time, share their lived experience, and help improve supports for young children and caregivers across Oswego County.

We’re forming a Parent Advisory Council made up of parents and caregivers who want their voices heard and want to help shape programs, policies, and priorities that impact families like yours.

🧡 Who we’re hoping to include one parent from each school district as well as a parent who homeschools, totaling 10 parent leaders across Oswego County.

Once the group is formed, we’ll meet for introductions and work together to choose a monthly meeting time that works best for everyone.

✨ No special experience needed; your voice as a parent is what matters most.
