What:

¶¶Òõ̽̽App

¶¶Òõ̽̽App Child Development Center has been awarded the Childcare Access Means Parents in School Grant from the United States Department of Education. This grant will fund partial child care assistance to Pell-eligible ¶¶Òõ̽̽App students who need CDC care for their children. Applicants will be selected based on need and space availability. Once a student is receiving assistance, they will remain eligible for assistance as long as they remain Pell-eligible and continue progressing in their schooling. Because of grant fund limitations, not all who apply will be selected.

Explanation:

¶¶Òõ̽̽App

This grant helps keep parents who are going to school in school by assisting with the cost of childcare. Here at ¶¶Òõ̽̽App, there are a large number of Pell-eligible student parents who would benefit from financial assistance to help cover the cost of child care.

Services:

¶¶Òõ̽̽App

The CDC has three services to help serve the child care needs of Pell-eligible ¶¶Òõ̽̽App student parents. The CCAMPIS Grant will fund partial child care assistance based on ¶¶Òõ̽̽App student need and space availability within the CDC.
