Child
Care Services (CCS) program provides subsidized child care for parents that are
working, training or enrolled in educational programs. The parent's
monthly gross income determines their eligibility for the program. As a
way to involve parents in their child care decisions a sharing of the cost for
child care services is required.
We currently have 45 daycare facilities, 13 of which are
Texas Rising Star Providers on contract with us within the 13 counties of
the Concho Valley. Texas Rising Star Providers are facilities that exceed
the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services minimum standards.
Parents may also choose Self-Arranged-Child Care though the
child care system. Self-Arranged Child Care can be provided at locations
that are not contracted with CCS. This child care service can be performed
by a great-grandparent, grandparent, aunt/uncle, or siblings over age 18 that
are not living in the household of the child.
