Archived Grant Opportunity View - GO673

The Community Child Care Fund (CCCF) is a part of the new child care package that comes into effect in July 2018. Grants provided under the CCCF are intended to supplement fee income received from families, including Child Care Subsidy and Additional Child Care Subsidy payments. 

The CCCF restricted non-competitive grant opportunity (a separate process to the CCCF open competitive grant opportunity) intends to ensure continuity of eligible services during and beyond any period of transition, support eligible specified services to build capacity and operate sustainably under the new child care system and support services to increase participation by Indigenous children.

The CCCF restricted non-competitive grant opportunity is available to specified services only.

To be eligible to apply for funding under this grant opportunity, you must be the operator of a child care service that is on the list of eligible services specified by the department (specified service).

To apply go to the department’s website.
