Contracted Child Care Agencies
The Department of Health and Human Services contracts with community agencies statewide to provide direct child care services to eligible families. Families apply for these services and pay on a sliding fee scale which assesses a parent fee that will not exceed 10% of the family's gross monthly income (much like the voucher program). Services include full-time or part-time child care, wrap-around services for Head Start, and family child care networks for children ages 6 weeks to 12 years of age in licensed child care centers or family child care homes.
To find out about availability or to apply for a contracted child care slot, contact the agency directly. Your Child Care Resource Development Center can also provide information about contracted slots and agencies that have these slots available.
