Services:
We provide subsidies to families for child care. Quality early childhood experiences help prepare children to succeed in the future, so we also provide information on the various types of child care available and offer workshops on safety, child development, and early childhood education for child care providers.
Child Care Providers are chosen by the families and care may be provided in child care centers, family child care homes, homes of relatives, before/after-school programs or summer programs.
Cost:
Amounts of assistance to each family depend on gross family income and the cost of child care chosen. Most families pay part of the costs to the provider they choose. Limited funds are available.
