South Central Ohio Job and Family Services (SCOJFS) pays part of the cost of childcare for qualifying families as they work toward self-sufficiency. This help is available for parents who are working in paid employment, attending school, completing vocational training, or working off cash assistance.
Families receiving this benefit must take their children to childcare providers who are certified by SCOJFS or are licensed by the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services and under contract with SCOJFS. The childcare benefit is paid directly to the childcare provider or center and families are expected to pay a part of the cost based on income and family size.
Choosing a perfectly matched childcare provider is up to the family, but we are also here to help along the way. We all need a little help sometimes.
