Emergency Child Care Bridge Program for Foster Children 

The Emergency Child Care Bridge Program for Foster Children, also known as the “Foster Bridge Program,” is a referral-based program that helps foster parents with immediate access to quality and affordable subsidized child care as they move through the California Department of Social Services. Each family may be served in the program for up to six months or until the child is enrolled in long-term child care. Eligibility may be extended an additional six months, not to exceed 12 months, at the county’s discretion. The program can be reached at ccap-pi@kcao.org.
