 AFTER-SCHOOL CARE LINKS |

The State of Texas provides subsidized child care for low-income families who are determined eligible through the Child Care Services (CCS) system. The Workforce Commission, through twenty-eight local workforce development boards, administers funding to provide child care services to eligible families. It is the responsibility of the child care contractor to manage funding sources and serve families eligible for these funds, provided that available funding for the fiscal year has not been exhausted.
The agency’s Child Care Licensing Division is responsible for protecting the health, safety, and well being of children who attend or reside in regulated child care facilities and homes. The Division provides consultation, technical assistance, and training for child care providers and educates the public in the selection and improvement of child care services.
