Gap Scholarship Program
For Families
Does your family need help paying for child care?
The Gap Child Care Scholarship program offsets the cost of child care, helping families cover child care expenses including tuition and fees. Families can apply for up to $2,500 per calendar year for assistance. In addition, recipients will have the opportunity to meet with CCC’s Family Engagement Coordinator to navigate additional resources and supports in their community.
You might qualify if:
- Your child is between the ages of 0-5 (entering kindergarten)
- You don’t qualify for the Best Beginnings Child Care Scholarship
- You qualify for the Best Beginnings Child Care Scholarship but don’t have access to licensed child care
- You have an annual household income of less than $131,000 per year (150% or less of the State Median Income)
- Utilize licensed or legally operating child care
We are not currently accepting applications for the Gap Scholarship due to a lack of available funding. However, our efforts to expand funding are ongoing. Please share your information by clicking the button below to receive updates about scholarship availability. Thank you!
