CCDF Tribal grants provide child care funding directly to federally recognized Indian tribes and tribal organizations to expand access to affordable, high-quality child care for low-income families on and near tribal lands. Tribes design their own subsidy programs to reflect the cultural and geographic needs of their communities, and may also fund quality improvement activities at tribal child care centers and family child care homes. Approximately 260 tribal entities receive CCDF tribal grants annually.
