Subsidized Child Care Program
Using a combination of state and federal funds, North Carolina provides subsidized child care services to a large number of eligible families.
Goals:
-
Enable Parents to maintain or seek employment
-
Provide child care to children receiving protective services
-
Enable parents to participate in job training or educational programs that will lead to employment
-
Provide child care to children in need of early intervention to enhance their development
-
Facilitate the reunification of families, aid families in crisis, and prevent foster care
Currently, Cleveland County has a waiting list for child care assistance. As funding becomes available additional children can be served form the waiting list.
