About Vermont’s Child Care Financial Assistance Program (CCFAP)
Vermont’s Child Care Financial Assistance Program (CCFAP) helps eligible families pay for child care so parents can work, attend school, or participate in support programs. Eligibility is based on income (up to 575% of the federal poverty level), family size, and reason for needing care. The program supports children from birth through age 13, or older if they have special needs. Families may pay a family share based on income, provider type, and child’s age. To apply, families must submit a paper or online application. Local Community Child Care Support Agencies are available to support families with applying and submitting necessary documentation.
