NJ Child Care Assistance Program is Open Now for New Registrations
January 23, 2026The registration form for New Jersey’s Child Care Assistance Program (CCAP) is now available. The program helps income-eligible working families, students, and job trainees pay for child care costs for children up to age 13 or age 19 for children with special needs.
Priority is given to families with children experiencing homelessness, children with special needs, and households with very low incomes. Due to limited funding, not all families who qualify will receive assistance.
Families must complete a registration form first. If selected, they will be invited to submit a full application. More information and the registration form are available at ChildCareNJ.gov.
