The Department of Public Health and Human Services' Early Childhood and Family Support Division (ECFSD) is providing scholarships to working families of elementary-age children to help cover costs of out-of-school programming/child care for the summer months. Scholarships are limited, one-time grants, with a choice of either $1,500 or $2,500 per eligible child based on a family's summer care costs. This opportunity is made possible by the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSA). ECFSD anticipates a total of 3,200 scholarships to be awarded across the state of Montana.
Eligible families have:
Parents/guardians engaged in the workforce;
Children entering kindergarten through fifth grade in the Fall of 2022;
Be able to demonstrate a need for out-of-school programming/child care for the summer; and
Not currently participating in the Best Beginnings Child Care Scholarship.
There are no income requirements.
The application can be found online: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/RC7FRB2 . The application opens May 20th at 9:00 a.m. I’ve also attached a QR code if that’s helpful.
