Local department of social service agencies can assist parents with the payment of day care fees as determined by a sliding fee scale, based on the availability of funding. All parents with income receiving sliding scale subsidy must contribute towards the cost of their child day care. Fees are calculated at 10% of the family's gross income. Income guidelines for eligibility in Charlotte County are outlined in the chart below.
Residents of Charlotte County may apply at the Virginia Workforce Center in Charlotte Court House for assistance with the payment of day care costs. Those outside Charlotte County can contact their local departments of social services to see if fee day care assistance is available in their locality.
