NY State Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP)
Each state receives funds from the federal government for their state’s child care assistance program. Onondaga and Cayuga Counties both distribute this money through their Department of Social Services child care programs. Assisted child care is available for certain eligible parents/caretakers to enable them to work. Each county has its own application process and specific program guidelines – to find out if you qualify:
