Child Care Executive Partnership
The Child Care Executive Partnership (CCEP) program is an innovative, public/private partnership program that assists employers meet the needs of a growing segment of their work force - working parents. Through this program, federal and state funding is "matched" with contributions from local governments, charitable foundations and participating businesses on a dollar-for-dollar basis to provide child care services to participating families.
Eligibility - employees of participating CCEP business partners whose household income is at or below 200% of the federal poverty level. For example, a family of four may currently earn up to $44,700 annually and still be eligible to participate. The federal poverty level is adjusted annually.
The employee contribution to child care provider is based on a sliding fee scale. The employer contribution to child care provider is 50% of balance remaining after the employee contribution. Finally, the CCEP Board pays the provider 50% of balance remaining after employee contribution.
Parents choose the child care provider from more than 200 participating providers in Marion County.
