Financial assistance for child care

family
Did you know that you might qualify for financial assistance to offset the cost of child care? Qualified families can receive funding that can be applied to the parent's choice of child care.
 
To qualify, parents/guardians must demonstrate a need for services (such as employment or seeking employment, going to school, etc.) and meet eligibility criteria. Whether you need child care weekdays or weekends, day or night, financial assistance is available for the child care of your choice, including:
  • Child care centers;
  • Family child care homes;
  • Family, friend, or neighbor.
Unsure of what type of care you would best fit your family? We can help you determine the best type of care to fit your family's needs, and we can provide free child care referrals*.
 
The chart to the right provides guidelines for income eligibility, but we encourage you to complete the online inquiry form so a staff member can assist with determining your eligibility.
