    Subsidy Uptake Dashboard

    Metadata Updated: August 2, 2024

    This dashboard highlights the number of children in eligible families who participate in Working Connections Child Care (WCCC). In estimating eligibility, we count children in households that the Census Bureau estimates to have an income level at or below 60% of the State Median Income (SMI) and where all available parents are working. Statewide, this is about 296,000 children under the age of 13.

    About 44,000 children are currently served with childcare subsidies. Statewide, we estimate the uptake of subsidies among all eligible children at about 15%. These estimates vary by age group and time. Currently, DCYF estimates about 11% of infants, 25% of toddlers, 31% of preschool-age, and 10% of school-age children in eligible households are participating in subsidized childcare.
