The DSS Division of Early Care and Education is proud to partner with the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) to provide Military Child Care in Your Neighborhood-PLUS (MCCYN-PLUS), a program offering affordable, accessible child care options to military families.
MCCYN-PLUS offers fee assistance to eligible military and DoD civilian families when on-base child care is unavailable or if families do not live near base. This gives families a sense of ease when searching for high-quality child care.
The program is eligible for active-duty military personnel, National Guard members, reservists, and DoD civilian personnel.
Families can choose eligible licensed child care and family home programs that have at least a B+ rating through ABC Quality, South Carolina's quality rating and improvement system.
Families can sign up for MCCYN-PLUS here.
