For young children, it is essential to connect to the right resources so they can continue recovering from any learning loss caused by the pandemic and get back on track. Working families seeking high-quality early education and out-of-school programs for their children can now apply for the Build, Learn, Grow scholarship fund.

To receive a scholarship, one family member must qualify as an essential worker, like those who work in health care or food service, and their family must meet income eligibility requirements. Scholarships can be used for children’s early care and education, and summer learning or out-of-school care. The scholarships will cover 80% of child-care costs for children up to age 12.
Applications are open and run through Oct. 31, 2021, and there are 50,000 scholarships available through the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration on a first-come, first-served basis.
