Collaborative Slots
Child care slots
in any profit or non-profit early childhood center or licensed family child care home that is receiving, or is eligible to receive, IDHS child care subsidy funding and that is engaged in a collaboration with either Early/Head Start or the ISBE pre-kindergarten program and that is serving collaboration children in one location.
The early childhood centers or family child care homes are those that are participants in the Illinois Department of Human Services' (DHS) Child Care Collaboration Program. This program was created to facilitate high-quality collaborative arrangements between child care and other early care and education providers and/or funding streams. It is enabled by Child Care Administrative Rule, Sections 50.610-650.
