Important Notice about University of Nevada Campus Extension Courses

Beginning July 1, 2025, The University of Nevada, Reno Extension office has implemented modest fees for select initial training courses previously available at no charge. Please email Cathy Pesklakai at UNR Extension (cpeshlakai@unr.edu) with any questions about this change and/or to learn more about their courses.

More Information

As of July 1, 2024, all child care facilities in Washoe County are licensed by the State of Nevada Division of Welfare and Supportive Services Child Care Licensing Program (DWSS CCL). As a result, the information in this post may no longer be valid but is being preserved on the NEWS page for historical purposes. Please refer to the DWSS CCL website for the most current information.  

From Washoe County Child Care Licensing:

With the information of the newly updated guidance from the CDC regarding vaccinated people wearing masks, there is NO CHANGE to whether or not child care staff must wear masks. Masks are still required in the child care setting and around children. Washoe County Health District has advised that Washoe County can be more restrictive than the government in these mask mandates. Until Washoe County informs Child Care Licensing differently, there is still the requirement to follow the mask mandate.

Please reach out to your licensing worker if you have any questions.
