Child Care Access Means Parents in School grants

Deadline: May 8, 2009

The CCAMPIS Program supports the participation of low-income parents in postsecondary education through the provision of campus-based child care services.

Priority is given to institutions of higher education that submit applications describing child care programs that: (1) Leverage significant local or institutional resources, including in-kind contributions, to support the activities assisted under section 419N of the HEA; and (2) Utilize a sliding fee scale for child care services provided under this program in order to support a high number of low-income parents pursuing postsecondary education at the institution.
