Child Care Capital Program

Program Overview

Quality child care is critical to New York families as it provides a safe environment for children, while also providing the educational foundation for the next generation of New Yorkers. Working families struggle to find quality programs in their communities in every corner of the State.

To effectively address New York’s continuing need for affordable, quality child care services, New York State has made $50 million available for the NYS Child Care Capital Program (CCCP). The Child Care Capital Program was created to provide funding to assist child care providers in expanding the capacity of their programs.

The Child Care Capital Program will provide reimbursement grants for the design, construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation, equipment, and other capital assets for existing or proposed not-for-profit or for-profit child day care centers licensed under 18 NYCRR 418-1, school age child care programs registered under 18 NYCRR 414 and Article 47 permitted programs.
