Published: 2/5/2025
The expansion of the state’s Child Care Assistance Program last January to include early child care workers and adoptive parents resulted in more than 2,600 additional students receiving assistance to attend high-quality child care programs. This remarkable increase has led to the program reaching capacity for the first time since 2018. Currently, more than 18,300 students are participating in the program.
