The Child Care Access Means Parents in School (CCAMPIS) program is a federal grant funded by the U.S. Department of Education to support parent-students. This program supports the participation of low-income parent-students in postsecondary education through the provision of campus-based child care services. Families who meet the requirements of the CCAMPIS Grant may receive a reduction in their monthly child care tuition.
Participation is limited.
CCAMPIS Provides
- Financial assistance with child care fees.
- Workshops on various topics such as parenting tips, stress management, child development, budgeting, time management, and others that parent-students identify as needed.
- Information about community resources and agencies.
