Children's Aid Society, Early Learning Childcare Center,
Receives Provisional License
President and CEO, Eric M. Chase, M.S., M.Div. is pleased to
announce that the Children’s Aid Society’s Early Learning Child-
care program located at the WELCC, Werner Early Learning
Childcare Center, 636 W. Poplar St., York, PA, has received its
provisional license from the PA State DHS Office of Child
Development and Early Learning (OCDEL) effective 12/23/25.
This important milestone allows us to begin welcoming children
and families into our program and begin to serve them and the
community, while we continue working toward full licensure and
our Keystone Stars quality rating. We are grateful to our dedicated
ELC leadership and staff team, our community partners and
supporters, who made this next step possible by expanding high-
quality, nurturing childcare for all children in our community in a
safe and loving place.
