Child Care Workforce Development Act

This bill creates two programs to support early childhood educators. The first provides loan repayment assistance (up to $6,000 annually) for educators who work 5 years at qualifying childcare providers (like centers receiving federal child care vouchers). The second offers grants ($4,000 per academic year) to students in early childhood education programs, requiring them to work in licensed early learning settings for at least one year per grant year. Both programs require service commitments, with failure to comply treated as a loan requiring repayment under specific income-based terms. The programs directly affect early childhood educators, students pursuing relevant degrees, and childcare providers participating in federal child care programs.
