Today, the Office of Early Childhood and Out of School Learning announced cuts to voucher reimbursement rates that sustain many providers. And this afternoon, Early Learning Indiana shared results of a survey that show we could lose up to 10,000 child care seats in the next 12 months.

Families are speaking up, like this one below, who shared their story with Hoosier Milestones. You can share how the CCDF waitlist and cuts are affecting your family or child care program, too. Go to https://www.hoosiermilestones.org/resources.

Graphic text:
“I am a Kinship/Relative placement of a little girl that is 7 months old. Due to ccdf changes in December, foster care is no longer a priority in Indiana for CCDF and I made $20 more than the minimum salary last year.

I’m paying $800 a month on childcare because I can’t qualify based on income, but I also can’t qualify because there is too long of a waitlist for foster care vouchers as well. I took in a relative’s child and was told I would get assistance and help, just to find out they cut vouchers and I make $20 over the minimum.”

Preschool Prep had so much fun with their outside water/paint day!!
