Continue Child Care Subsidy Program after federal funding becomes unavailable |
Decision Package |
|
|
Provides state funding to ensure that low-income, working families currently receiving public support through the Child Care Subsidy Program continue to have access to high-quality early childhood and after school programs. A portion of the general fund support for the Child Care Subsidy Program is from redirected savings under the Virginia Preschool Initiative and Early Childhood Expansion programs under Direct Aid to Public Education. A corresponding adjustment under Direct Aid identifies these savings.
Additionally, supports the establishment of a digital wallet platform to host early learning and child care accounts for participating families. |
