The Kentucky Division of Child Care has opened applications for the Business Partnership Matching Grant. This is an opportunity for employers that have considered offering child care as a benefit for their employees to receive matching funds of up to $100,000.<\/p>\n

This grant is intended to counteract the reduction of child care options for working parents across the state. That need is especially great in Louisville, which has seen a nearly 10% reduction in available child care providers since the onset of the pandemic.<\/p>\n

Workforce shortages continue to be an issue impacting businesses in all sectors and many employers are re-evaluating their benefits beyond salary to attract and retain workforce. The Business Partnership Matching grant is an opportunity for businesses to consider employer-sponsored child care as an added benefit and convenience for their own employees, while also expanding access to quality child care in our region.<\/p>\n

GLI partnered with Metro United Way to host an information session last year with representatives from the Kentucky Division of Child Care. View the recording with details on the grant.<\/a><\/p>\n

If your business is interested in applying for the Business Partnership Matching grant, the application is available here (just click on Department for Community Based Services).<\/a><\/p>\n
