Thank Your Congressmen for Increasing Funding for Child Care

Last spring, Congress delivered an historic increase in funding for the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) at a critical time for children and families in Kentucky. The Bevin Administration is utilizing the additional $42 million to cover identified gaps in access to high-quality child care. Last December, the Cabinet for Health and Family Services announced that it would increase provider payment rates, increase eligibility at re-certification so that parents do not suddenly lose child care assistance when they get a promotion or better paying job, remove a 20-hour work requirement for parents enrolled in post-secondary education or training, pay for background checks, and cover child care assistance for children in foster care. The CCDBG investments will impact child care centers in most Kentucky counties.

We're celebrating this win for Kentucky kids, families, communities, and the economy! Join us by thanking your Congressmen for supporting investments in child care supports.
