"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

Many of you are working on Childcare and have questions about the new funding programs through ARPA.

I encourage you all to visit this website from DPPHS. https://dphhs.mt.gov/ARPA/Childcare/ChildCareStabilizationGrant. This website has all the current information on the childcare stabilization funds and will continue to be updated as new programs come to fruition.

A webinar on the stabilization is on Oct. 7^th and the link to register is on the website above. Please share with your childcare providers. This first program is for existing childcare facilities- follow this website as innovation programs will be coming probably after the new year.

Thank you all,
