arrangements and/or school schedule and then compared to the parent(s) schedule(s) to determine what care the child is eligible to receive. The schedule for children who are the subject of a shared custody agreement is to include the time the child is in care with the participating parent. For example: 50/50 shared custody agreement. Child is in care full time at the same child care provider and each parent picks- up and drops-off according to their custody agreement. Only one (1) parent is applying for CCAP participation. The applying parent is eligible for a part month of care even though the child’s care need is a full month due to the other parent’s schedule.
