The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) within the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is offering this grant to support Refugee Home-Based Childcare Microenterprise Development Projects. This initiative aims to assist primarily refugee women, and also men, in achieving economic self-sufficiency by establishing and operating home-based childcare services. Grant recipients will provide comprehensive training covering local, state, and federal childcare laws, licensing requirements, and cultural norms. Furthermore, support includes English language acquisition, educational attainment (GED), and job skill development to address the shortage of childcare providers. The grant also facilitates agreements with state/county childcare offices, enabling providers to qualify for reimbursements, thereby improving economic opportunities for refugees.
