MCC will send an email notification when the renewal deadline approaches.
MCC, a Department of Defense website used by all military branches and most installations worldwide, is the primary resource for military families to search for and request child care providers.
The website gives parents the ability to request care at multiple facilities and remain on a waitlist even after receiving care from a different provider.
MCC 2.0 was released July 17 with updates to the system. The updates include a streamlined process to request care and manage requests, mobile access, self-help tools, more comprehensive information and a customized search experience.
