Virginia's Child Care Subsidy Program provides financial assistance
to low-income, eligible families to help pay a portion of child care
costs so families can work or participate in education programs.
Families can apply for the Child Care Subsidy Program and child care
providers can apply to participate as subsidy program vendors.
