Preschool Open Doors information at QKC
February 21, 2020 @ 2:30 pm - 4:00 pm
FreePATCH and Islands of Hope-Maui are hosting a pop-up Preschool Open Doors (POD) informational table on Friday, February 21, 2:30-4pm.
LOCATION: Islands of Hope-Maui resource center kiosk at Queen Ka‘ahumanu Center near the keiki play area.
PATCH staff will be on-site to talk to parents about paying for quality preschool.
Preschool Open Doors is Hawaii’s preschool subsidy program to help parents pay for quality preschool for 4-year-olds.
This application period is for school year 2020-2021. Applications are due by March 31, 2020.
The subsidies are partly based on income. For example, to be eligible, a family of four can earn up to $5,643 per month.
Children are eligible for the 2020-2021 subsidy if they were born between August 1, 2015 and July 31, 2016.
If a family is NOT eligible for POD, the PATCH workers can help them find other possible sources of childcare/preschool financial assistance. Maui County has additional subsidies beyond the POD.
