Support for Growing Educational Opportunities
The Challenge
The Indiana Office of Early Childhood and Out-of-School Learning (OECOSL), a division of the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration, oversees early childhood education and out-of-school-time programs. To provide support for growing educational opportunities, OECOSL launched the Employer-Sponsored Child Care Fund. This $25 million grant program offers seed funding to employers and communities to expand employer-subsidized childcare benefits and increase local childcare access for working Hoosier families.
The Solution
OECOSL sought TCG’s support in the development and launch of this program. TCG developed a business case for employers to invest in child care, use case examples for the grant program, created and facilitated two webinars for potential applicants which included convening a panel of community and business leaders, and completed a formative evaluation of the program.
The Outcomes
- Created a business case overview for why an investment in early care and education is beneficial.
- Shared 8 use case examples highlighting employer-sponsored grant program model options.
- Facilitated 2 webinars to share learnings and best practices, and provided technical support to grantees to help them pivot or make changes to accomplish their goals.
- Completed an evaluation of the program to both understand how the grant program is administered and implemented by the applicants and the impact of the grant program.
