Subsidized Child Care for All Deployed Troops

Subsidized Child Care Available for All Deployed Troops: Thousands of deployed National Guard/Reservists are now eligible to receive help with daycare near their home. The department of defense has launched "Operation Military Child Care" to help families that aren't near bases pay for childcare. National Guard, reserve, and active duty personnel serving in the war on terror are eligible for the aid. In the past help was only available for people living near a military base leaving many families, especially members of the National Guard/Reservists to fend for themselves. The amount of assistance will depend on family income, geographic location, Military and DOD childcare free policy and funding availability. Applications are set to be processed within one to five days of receipt.
