Michigan’s Child Development and Care Scholarship helps eligible families pay for child care while parents or guardians are working, attending school, completing job training, or participating in another qualifying activity.

Eligibility is based on factors including household income, family size, your child’s age, and why you need child care. If you are unsure, schedule a free appointment and our team will help you understand the requirements.
