About CCRS
This office combines the Child Care Fund Program, which provides subsidies for child care, and the Office of Regulatory Services, that license and ensures quality control of child care facilities and group homes.
As a key prevention program within the territory, the Child Care Development Fund program is one of the most important within the DHS for addressing 
working parents’ growing need for quality child care. The Child Care Fund is a federal program which provides child care subsidies to lower income working parents for infant, preschool, and for before- and after-school care, for children up to age 12. It also provides support for quality improvement in the private child care sector. The program supports both licensed facilities and informal providers who have been selected by parents and approved by DHS. Though a major force in ensuring quality child care within the private and public sector, this Office quietly goes about its work of:
In addition to satisfying the precise federal requirements that govern it, the impact this program is having and will continue to have on preventing abuse and/or neglect, is immense. By keeping children of working parents in safe, stimulating and healthy environments, this program offers protection from unsupervised access to inappropriate and violent material on TV and computer networks, child predators, and other criminals, which represent only a few of the ills that have permeated the fabric of our community.
