If a participant is ineligible for childcare through the Childcare Financial Assistance Program (CCFAP), but performs approved ICAN activities, ICAN can approve childcare services for the participant through a third party using the Vermont childcare subsidy rate schedule. The schedule of childcare must match the employment/training schedule. Proof of denial from CCFAP required. Participants eligible for CCFAP with a family portion to pay may be eligible for reimbursement of their portion of the cost.

Direct payment to provider Reimbursement to participants Provider voucher Contract for dependent care Other If dependent care agencies have a waiting list or otherwise cap the number of enrolled dependents, how will the State agency ensure E&T participants with dependent care needs receive dependent care? When a dependent care agency has a waitlist or otherwise caps enrollment, ICAN will work with the participant to determine the dependent care needs and will work on alternative childcare solutions. ICAN can provide participant reimbursements to alternative providers as the participant continues to engage in ICAN and is working towards securing long term childcare. 1/29/26, 10:27 AM State Plan VT FY26 - Original Submission https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-vtfy26stateplan//index.html 55/159
