Employment Related Day Care (ERDC)
The Employment-Related Day Care (ERDC) program helps families who are working, attending school, or receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) pay for child care, including registration fees. ERDC works with partners across the state to support families in finding and maintaining quality child care.
ERDC is a subsidy program, which means many families may pay a portion of their child care costs, known as a copayment (copay).
