Here is the latest information we have for Ohio child care providers as of June 5, 2020.
Update Your Status In OCLQS By June 7
All child care programs must enter their reopening date in OCLQS. This includes those who were under Temporary Pandemic Child Care Licenses. Any program that won’t be reopening also needs to update their program status in OCLQS.
Any program that has not updated OCLQS by June 7, 2020 at 11:59 p.m. will be put into temporary closure status by ODJFS. Here are directions to Update Your Status In OCLQS.

Grant Guidelines Webinar Recording
During a webinar held yesterday, representatives from 4C for Children and OCCRRA, which is tasked with distributing the child care grant dollars offered by the state, discussed and answered questions about the Child Care Grant Guidelines and the Pandemic Support Payments process.
Thank you so much to everyone who attended and asked questions. If you couldn’t join the discussion, here’s a link to the recorded webinar as well as the slides that accompanied the presentation.
Attend a Training. Share Your Opinion. Be Entered to Win a Prize!
After you attend a 4C for Children virtual training you will receive a brief evaluation via email that will give you an opportunity to let us know how we did.
Filling out these evaluations will not only give us useful information to make our virtual offerings the best they can be, but will also give you a chance to win an Amazon gift card. Each week, one winner from Southwest Ohio and one winner from Miami Valley will be chosen and contacted via email. Thanks in advance for your help!
