How to File a Complaint

If your complaint is about treatment, conduct, accident reporting, behavior, staff ratios, or any food or environmental issue, contact the local DCF Office or local licensing agency. Please have the details surrounding the complaint, date(s) of the incident or observation, location/room within the facility it occurred or was observed, address of the center, and any other pertinent information related to the issue.

If you have a complaint about a religiously exempt child care center, not licensed by DCF or by a local licensing agency, you will have to contact the religious exempting agency for that specific center to file a complaint.
