About this resource
The Employment Related Day Care program (ERDC) provides financial assistance for child care to families who are employed, enrolled in school, or receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), which includes covering registration fees.
Application Process: You can apply via the internet, over the phone, or by visiting a local ODHS Self Sufficiency Branch Office in person.
Cost Sharing: ERDC operates as a subsidy program, meaning that many families will still need to contribute towards child care expenses through a copayment. The amount of this copayment is determined by the family's size and income level.
Who can use this
- To qualify for this program, families must: -Reside in Oregon. -Be employed, attending school, or receiving TANF. -In a two-parent household, both parents must be employed or in school unless they are receiving TANF. -There are exceptions for two-parent families where one parent is unable to provide care due to health issues or state-required supervised contact. -Require child care to maintain employment, education, or engage in family well-being activities. Have a child who is: -Under 13 years old and requires care, or -Aged 13 to 17 and needs care due to special circumstances. -Meet income thresholds, with initial limits at 200% FPL and ongoing or exit limits at 250% FPL. Refer to the website for the income chart.
