The Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) is the primary funding source for federal child care subsidies to low-income working families, as well as improving child care quality. CCDBG provides child care assistance to children from birth to age 13. This fact sheet highlights key information about school-age children and CCDBG. This information includes: (1) A third of children served in CCDBG are between ages 6 and 13; (2) More than half of school-age children in CCDBG are served in center-based care; and (3) The CCDBG school-age earmark funds a range of services.
