Utah’s Childcare subsidy program administered through the Department of Workforce Services helps employed parents with childcare costs. Eligibility to receive federally funded subsidies do not apply for U.S. born children of immigrant parents.
KPCW reports on the impacts the policy has on mixed status families in Utah.
The federally funded subsidy is determined based on income and size of household and is paid directly to the approved childcare provider at the beginning of each month.
