Daycare subsidy could go away if no license by August

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WBRC) - Parents who send their kids to daycare partly by using government subsidy could lose those benefits on August 1 if their daycare facility is not licensed.

Families who meet the income criteria can apply for the subsidy program to help cover some of the costs.

However, because of a new law passed in 2018, Alabama daycares must be licensed by August 1, 2019 to continue receiving the subsidy payments.

Parents who use the program are being encouraged to make sure they use a licensed facility or move their child to another daycare.

"If they are not licensed, find out what are their plans. Are they in the process of becoming licensed or are they going to drop subsidy all together,” said Joan Wright, executive director Childcare Resources.

Below is a list of facilities receiving the subsidy that are not yet licensed: (Source: Alabama DHR, as of July 25, 2019)
