Frequently Asked Questions about CCDF
Find a Child Care Provider accepting CCDF vouchers in your area
(You may contact your local CCRR for questions about qualified providers. Ask about "Contract Centers" in your area. These are centers that have funds available to help families but you must attend those particular centers to receive that assistance. The income guidelines for these centers are the same as the ones for CCDF. You may also contact 2-1-1 for assistance.)
