The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare Financial Services Division has been awarded a $27,786,990 Child Care and Development Block Grant (CFDA 93.575) from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Administration for Children and Families. This multi-year block grant, with a period of performance from October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2027, will support the division's administration of essential child care services for low-income families in Idaho. Funding from this award will be used to provide child care subsidies, implement quality improvement initiatives, develop the child care workforce, and conduct research to inform child care policies and practices. As a key pass-through entity for federal child care funding in the state, the division frequently issues sub-awards to local health departments, community organizations, and tribal entities to deliver these services across Idaho.
