Child Care Relief Funding
​
The Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) will make $790 million available in June. The funds will be available to regulated child care programs, centers, and family care across the state (registered homes, licensed homes, and licensed centers).
The following are a few key components of the Child Care Relief Funding (CCRF):
  • Funds can be used to reimburse the child care program for expenses incurred since January 1, 2021, or to assist in paying for current, immediate expenditures.
  • Funds must be used for the purposes of cleaning and sanitation, and other activities necessary to maintain or resume program operation, including for fixed costs and increased operating expenses. You must ensure you have receipts or other proof of payment for these expenses.
  • Payment amounts are based on the child care program's licensed capacity and the 75th percentile of the average local market rate for child care in the area. Child care programs that are certified as Texas Rising Star or are nationally accredited will receive an increased amount. Programs located in areas with low child care capacity compared to the number of working families with children will also receive an increased amount. You can find more information in the Commission’s policy action: Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSA) Child Care Development Block Grant – Prioritization and Use of Funds
  • Technical assistance and business coaching will be available to assist in completing the application process, documenting expenditures, and providing other general business education support.
Providers do not need to contact TWC to apply for funds. TWC will email all eligible child care programs as soon as processes are in place to award and issue the CCRF. Emails will go to the address used for accessing the CCR online portal in early June and will include details on the application process.
