Accessing Assistance for Child Care Expenses

The Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) works with parents and guardians to facilitate financial assistance to offset the costs of child care for children.

What does the County CCAP Program do?

• Determine eligibility for Child Care Assistance
• Establish Parental Fees (parent/guardians share of costs)
• Assist with finding quality child care providers Mile High United Way Referral Service - see Additional Resources Section

The Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) provides financial assistance to eligible low-income families who need child care benefits for children from birth to age 12. If you are eligible, a portion of the total child care cost will be paid. You will be required to pay a portion of the childcare costs directly to the provider based on family size and income.

Boulder County administers CCAP alongside its other self-sufficiency-supporting services. This means that we are able to more quickly connect you with other services you may need, including food and housing assistance, Medicaid, and Work Supports.
