Free Relief Grant Sessions Through July!

Written by Child Care Aware® of Missouri | May 16, 2022 1:42:27 PM

Child Care Aware® of Missouri has helped over 200 agencies receive over 7 million dollars in relief grant funding. Come join a free Zoom session where we walk you through the application process for relief grants.

From The Office of Childhood: Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) “Round 2” Update
We have 141 applications in Round 2 PPP that are still pending because we are waiting on information from providers. In most cases, the pending applications are missing required information: current No Tax Due letter, current E-verify, a MissouriBUYS account, and receipts that match requested funds.

  • If you applied for Round 2 PPP before April 30th and you have not received an email about your payment, it may be because your application is missing information.
  • Please check your email for messages from “MO Child Care Relief” so we can finish your application. We need to close these out soon.

Grants to be covered:

  • The Start-up/Expansion/Enhancement grant
  • Technical/Business Assistance grant
  • More added as updates are given



The following dates are available to register for:

NOTICE:

Child Care Aware® of Missouri does not administer the grants. Thus, if you have already applied, we do not have access to or the status of your application as our organization does not decide these matters. DESE Office of Childhood administers and awards the grants. 
 
If you have questions about your submitted application, please reach out to ChildCareRelief@dese.mo.gov and provide your program information, including your DVN, and which grants you applied for.
