Subsidy Uptake Dashboard

This dashboard highlights the number of children in eligible families who participate in Working Connections Child Care (WCCC). In estimating eligibility, we count children in households that the Census Bureau estimates to have an income level at or below 60% of the State Median Income (SMI) and where all available parents are working. Statewide, this is about 296,000 children under the age of 13.

About 44,000 children are currently served with childcare subsidies. Statewide, we estimate the uptake of subsidies among all eligible children at about 15%. These estimates vary by age group and time. Currently, DCYF estimates about 11% of infants, 25% of toddlers, 31% of preschool-age, and 10% of school-age children in eligible households are participating in subsidized childcare.

本仪表盘突显了符合资格的家庭中参与工作联系儿童保育计划（WCCC）的儿童数量。在评估资格时，我们统计了美国人口普查局估计其收入水平在或低于州中位数收入（SMI）60%的家庭中的儿童，以及所有可用的父母均在工作的家庭。在全州范围内，这一数字约为296,000名13岁以下的儿童。目前，约有44,000名儿童接受了儿童保育补贴。在全州范围内，我们估计所有符合资格的儿童中接受补贴的比例约为15%。这些估计值因年龄组和时间而异。目前，华盛顿州儿童和家庭服务局（DCYF）估计，在符合资格的家庭中，约有11%的婴儿、25%的幼儿、31%的学龄前儿童和10%的学龄儿童参与了补贴保育。如需更多信息，请参阅：https://www.dcyf.wa.gov/practice/oiaa/reports/early-learning-dashboards/subsidy-takeup
