Get to Know the Micro-Facility Pilot Program
Dear Provider,
We're thrilled to introduce the Micro-Facility Pilot Program — a brand-new initiative aimed at expanding access to quality child care in Indiana. The program is designed to support you in opening new, non-residential child care facilities, called micro-facilities.
What is a Micro-Facility?
Micro-facilities are non-residential sites that serve between three and 30 children. They function as an extension of your existing program and can share resources and administrative support with your original location. Micro-facilities can also be set up in creative spaces like schools, libraries, shopping malls, and more. Check out this flyer for more information.
Why Should You Apply?
Here are just a few reasons to consider joining this innovative pilot:
-
Grow Your Program and Boost Sustainability: Streamlined regulations and shared resources help you grow while reducing costs.
-
Get Support Every Step of the Way: Partner with an expert who will assist you through the entire process — from application to licensing to opening your program.
-
Help Shape the Future of Child Care: Collaborate with State partners to inform policymaking and transform Indiana's child care landscape.
Who is Eligible?
To participate, you must:
- Be a licensed Indiana child care provider in good standing
- Be ready to open a micro-facility that meets all State requirements by April 30, 2025
Applications Open Soon
Keep an eye out for more details on how to apply starting January 8. Let's shape the future of child care in Indiana together. This program is a unique opportunity to grow your business and make a meaningful impact on families in your community. We'd love to chat with you about your questions.
