The NYS Office of Children and Family Services is offering a grant opportunity to help you open a new child care program in our region!  Invest in New York Child Care Deserts Grant Opportunity. Child care deserts are areas that do not have enough licensed and registered child care slots to serve the children who live there.  Child Care Deserts exist across New York State in both rural and urban areas.  

The INVEST IN NEW YORK CHILD CARE DESERTS GRANT hopes to address child care deserts across our state by offering $100 million in funding to help build child care in the areas of New York with the least supply.
