CHILD  CARE SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE TO THOSE WHO MEET INCOME GUIDELINES.

Recognizing that affordable child care is essential for children, families and the economy to thrive, Westchester County has partnered with the Child Care Council of Westchester to create the Westchester Works Scholarship for resident families who have not previously qualified for child care financial assistance.

 

For many families, child care is often the biggest bill in the household – but this new scholarship provides relief.

 

•                     A family of two was previously ineligible if household income was $34,841.

•                     Now, that same family can have a gross income of up to $60,674 and qualify for the Westchester Works Child Care Scholarship.

•                     A family of three can earn up to $74,950, and a family of four, up to $89,226.

 . To qualify for the scholarship or a child care subsidy, parents/guardians must be working and meet income eligibility. Click here to learn more and apply. Questions? Email scholarships@cccwny.org, or call (914) 761-3456 x140.
