[quote=Anonymous]Yes DC has childcare vouchers which may be used at licensed providers (there are some exceptions). http://childcareconnections.osse.dc.gov/MyChildCare/PayingForChildCare/2603/0 Providers say that the licensing requirements which emcompass safety, staffing levels, minimum qualifications for staff are very expensive to comply with, and forces them to charge more than the subsidies cover. Bowser and Councilman Gray, in particular, have been pushing for solutions to both expand the number of high-quality centers, and make them more affordable for residents through things like tax credits and tying costs to a percentage of income for low to lower-middle income families). In 2018 the Council passed the Birth to Three bill which lays out a 10-year roadmap for this effort. The plan is ambitious; now they need to find funding. https://wamu.org/story/18/11/19/d-c-looks-for-ways-to-fund-ambitious-early-childhood-program/ [/quote]
