FROM: MARIA WORTMAN-MESHBERGER, AGENCY MANAGER, CHILD CARE AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM SUBJECT: ANNUAL CHANGES TO THE CHILD CARE AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM (CCDP) HOUSEHOLD SIZE AND MONTHLY INCOME LIMITS

Every year, the federal government publishes the income figure which establishes Nevada’s median income. A percentage of this figure is used to determine a household’s eligibility and subsidy level for child care benefits.

The Child Care and Development Program (CCDP) Household Size & Monthly Income Chart shown below contains updated two-tiered income eligibility limits. The income limits on this chart are effective October 1, 2025.

The Nevada Child Care System (NCCS) has been updated to ensure the correct subsidy level is applied to all new applications and ongoing certificates. Subsidy eligibility remains at or below 41% of the State Median Income (SMI) for initial intake applications, and at or below 49% of SMI for renewal applications.

The CCDP Policy Manual will be updated to reflect this change with the next manual release.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding this information, please contact the Child Care and Development Program at ccdp@dss.nv.gov or (775) 684-0625.
