The New York State Office of Children and Family Services is soliciting applications from established not-for-profit child care resource and referral agencies to establish Child Care Support Centers. These centers will manage regional substitute pools of qualified, vetted professionals to support licensed and registered child care programs, ensuring operational continuity and stability for families. Up to four awards will be granted statewide, limited to one per OCFS-defined region, with total funding anticipated at 12.5 million dollars over five years. Each awardee is expected to receive 625,000 dollars annually and must obtain a CCSC operating certificate from OCFS. Eligible applicants must be prequalified not-for-profit organizations currently operating as recognized child care resource and referral agencies. Awardees are responsible for recruiting and verifying the qualifications of substitute caregivers in compliance with New York State regulations, including comprehensive background checks and adherence to SSL 390-a and SSL 390-b. The centers must operate at least eight hours a day, Monday through Friday, and allocate between 1% and 20% of their funding for caregiver stipends. Technical assistance and technology will be provided by the Early Care and Learning Council. The selection process is based on a scoring system where the technical component is weighted at 80% and the cost component at 20%, with a minimum average score of 65% required for funding consideration. Applicants must submit a two-step electronic application consisting of an online administrative form and an email submission of the program application and budget. Compliance requirements include certifications regarding gender-based violence and sexual harassment policies, as well as registration in the NYS Statewide Financial System for electronic payments. The anticipated contract start date is May 1, 2027.
