CCAP Provider Rates, Financial Information & Portal Help

DHS' Office of Child Care reimburses child care providers approved to give care to children enrolled in the Starting RIght Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP).

To become CCAP-approved, providers must complete the CCAP portion of the application, which includes a CCAP Provider Agreement, submit all required documentation and receive approval from the Office of Child Care. CCAP-approved providers are expected to enroll all CCAP eligible children using the Provider Portal after receiving a CCAP Certificate Number and a signed Parent/Provider Enrollment Agreement. A helpful resource for the Portal is below.

The amount received is according to the time authorization (full week, three-quarter week, half week or quarter week) for each individual child in accordance with the reimbursement rate established by law for your particular child care provider type.
