MARYLAND – The Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE) is giving licensed child care centers and family child care providers a chance to get more funding. MSDE announced the first round of Child Care Stabilization Grants are now available, totaling about $309 million. “As we emerge from the pandemic, we recognize the critical role that child care providers have played in the state’s overall recovery efforts – nurturing, caring and educating our youngest children while simultaneously supporting our State’s economy,” said Maryland Governor Larry Hogan in a release.
Providers will be able to apply for grants that will help support developmental and learning needs of children, promote equal access to child care, and support child care workers. MSDE says the goal is to help ease the financial burdens and challenges that many child care providers were faced with amid COVID-19.“Family child care and center-based providers have been on the frontline

During the 2021 session, the Maryland General Assembly passed and Hogan signed into law Senate Bill 497, which transfers the responsibility of educational programming from the Maryland State Department of Education to the Juvenile Services Education Board.
Supporters of the legislation noted that the Department of Education is not directly responsible for operating any other school system in the state, and that a dedicated school board would be better able to address unique educational, psycho-social and other special needs of children at Maryland s Juvenile Services facilities.
