Public Meeting Notice Virtual Public Comment - Proposed Child Care Financial Assistance Regulations
Overview
EEC has proposed an update to Child Care Financial Assistance regulations (606 CMR 10.00, pursuant to its authority under M.G.L. c. 15D, § 3) with the goal to:
- expand initial eligibility to families with incomes at and up to 85% of State Median Income (SMI);
- codify priority access for staff working in early education and care programs; and
- ensure CCFA does not count as income for purposes of disqualifying families for other state governmental assistance.
EEC is accepting comments on the proposed regulations until 5:00 p.m. on April 15, 2025. You can share feedback in writing or provide live feedback at this public meeting. You can find the official posting here.
