Reynolds plans to expand preschool tied child care access
Gov. Reynolds proposes Senate Study Bill 1135 and House File 145 to launch a $16 million three year grant program. Preschool providers and child care centers could receive up to $100000 to offer wraparound services. The plan shifts about $3.6 million to focus on preschool grants while raising concerns over diverting Early Childhood Iowa funds and consolidating boards. Local groups warn this could reduce infant and mental health services.
