The Work Force Support Grant (WFSG) 2.0 is open and intended to provide funding to eligible DHS certified child care providers for staff retention and staff recruitment purposes. WFSG is an initiative from the Office of Child Development and Early Learning (OCDEL) and was made possible through the enactment of Act 54 of 2022 and the availability of additional American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds.
The WFSG 2.0 Application is due no later than December 6, 2022, to the ELRC office.
- Applications received at the ELRC with a postmark date after December 6, 2022, will not be eligible to apply.
- It is preferred that applications be submitted by email to the ELRC.
- Questions about the WFSG Application should be directed to the ELRC.
- Similar to the previous Work Force Support Grant, WFSG 2.0 supports staff retention and staff recruitment but contains significant changes to provider and staff eligibility requirements, funding categories and the availability of grant funds.
- Funding is limited and funds will be made available on a first come – first served basis to providers who complete accurate and timely applications.
