2022 Summer Out-of-School Time Child Care Scholarship Application
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 entering Kindergarten through 5th grade in the Fall of 2022, 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. Applications will be awarded following a regional allocation formula based on census information, in order ensure equitable access. Parents must be employed and be able to provide documentation of summer care arrangements to be considered eligible.
Applicants will be contacted by their local Child Care Resource and Referral Agency by either the email address or phone number they provided to complete application process. Awarded applicants will receive a check via mail.
There will be a follow-up survey sent out in August to the email provided in this application. The survey will be used to help inform the impact of the summer out-of-school time scholarship and future programs.
