Request for Proposals (RFP) Opportunities
Special Accommodation Grant Request for Application (RFA) Opportunity
The Child Development Division (CDD) is seeking to award Special Accommodation Grants (SAG) to one (1) or more Vermont Licensed Specialized Child Care Programs to support a child or children's safe and successful inclusion within the child care program through the hiring of a qualified assistant. The requirements and process for applying for Special Accommodations Grants have changed to meet federal and state regulations.
Child Care Programs seeking to apply for funding through a Special Accommodation Grant will need to review the Request for Application for detailed information on the grant requirements and how to submit them.
