Gov. Wolf Announces $53 Million in Additional Support for Child Care Providers

Governor Tom Wolf visited the child care center at PSECU headquarters in Harrisburg to announce $53 million in additional financial support for child care providers that have suffered during COVID-19.

"This funding will help child care providers bridge the gap until their clientele returns," Gov. Wolf said. "It will also help them with any increased costs that have been incurred due to the pandemic - things like cleaning and sanitization, which will help keep the 386,000 children who attend our licensed child care facilities safe, as well as the workers who do so much to care for them."

The governor was joined at the announcement by Teresa Miller, secretary of the Department of Human Services; George Rudolph, president and CEO of PSECU; and Tonya Bastinelli, director of the Bright Horizons child care center at PSECU.
