The next round for the Community Child Care Fund (CCCF) grants for child care centres in regional and remote areas has now opened and Federal Member for Dawson, Andrew Willcox MP is encouraging local childcare providers to look into how this opportunity could benefit them directly.
Funds are available for eligible childcare centres to renovate or extend their facilities to cater for high un-met demand or for those wishing to work with other organisations to create sustainability support.
The funding is directed at helping early childhood education and care (ECEC) services to address barriers to ECEC participation for disadvantaged and vulnerable families and communities.
Mr Willcox says he welcomes the announcement of additional funding to support a fourth round of financial support for these crucial services.
“This funding aims to support centres in regional and remote areas to increase the viability and sustainability of early childhood education and increase the accessibility of services where there is high unmet demand.”
“Eligible childhood education and care centres can receive funding of up to $300,000 for capital works, including repairing, modifying, renovating, or extending their facilities.
“Alternatively, eligible centres can receive funding of up to $400,000 for sustainability support including working with other organisations and families to identify and address barriers to early childhood participation.
Applications for this funding close on March 8, 2024.
