Alabama Child Care
Subsidy Program
Hello parents! The Alabama Child Care Subsidy Program will be discussed here as well as where to find out if a child care facility is licensed and where to report violations or file a complaint.
The Office of Child Care Subsidy is responsible for administering the Alabama Child Care Subsidy Program which provides low-income and moderate-income families with equal access to child care programs. If you are interested in the Alabama subsidy program, you must fill out an application and mail it to your local Child Care Management Agency.
Those that will be considered eligible must make their home in Alabama and must be employed and/or enrolled in school or training and make no more income than is allowable. Income is referred to as the gross income before taxes, social security, or any other deductions are made.
Weekly gross income is multiplied by 4.333 to determine monthly income. Depending on the monthly income, you may be able to pay as little as $5.00 per week for child care. To see what fee schedule you may qualify for, go to
the Office of Alabama Child Care Subsidy,
for an overview of the Alabama subsidy program.
The Department administers the Alabama Child Care Subsidy Program regionally through six (6) Child Care Management Agencies (CMA’s) in nine (9) regions. You will need to contact the appropriate region for specific information. Here is the list of offices to contact about the Alabama Child Care Subsidy Program:
