Child Care Access Means Parents in School (CCAMPIS) 2026

HHS-OPE Posted ED-GRANT-26-053

Description

The CCAMPIS Program supports the participation of low-income parents in postsecondary education by providing campus-based child care services. The program makes competitive grants for a period of 4 years to institutions of higher education, with a priority for child care programs that (1) leverage significant local or institutional resources and (2) utilize a sliding fee scale. Institutions may use the funding to establish or support a campus-based child care program primarily serving the needs of students from low-income backgrounds enrolled at the institution. Grants may also be used to provide before- and after-class and other student support services to the extent necessary to enable low-income students enrolled at the institution of higher education to pursue postsecondary education. Assistance Listing Number : 84.335A

Eligibility

Institutions of higher education (as defined in sections 101 and 102 of the HEA) that awarded a total of $250,000 or more of Federal Pell Grant funds during FY 2025 to students enrolled at the institution.
