New York Union Child Care Coalition Enrollment

Child Care Subsidies are now available across New York City! These vouchers can be used for any type of child care provider and can save parents an average of $15,000 per year (per child) in child care expenses. Parents must be living in New York City or and meet income restrictions.

There is also a new Facilitated Enrollment Scholarship Program. The Scholarship Program serves families who are not eligible to apply under current subsidy/Temporary Assistance to Needy Families (TANF) guidelines and include families earning up to 400% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL), episodic workers, and undocumented children.  This scholarship can be used for any type of licensed child care provider and can save parents an average of $17,000 per year (per child) in child care expenses.
