The Government of the Northwest Territories is now accepting applications for the Supporting Child Inclusion and Participation Program for the 2024-2025 fiscal year.

The Supporting Child Inclusion and Participation Program provides Indigenous and community governments, non-profits, and licensed centre-based early learning and child care programs with funding to help enhance child inclusion and participation of children from birth to six years of age who require enhanced or individual assistance to safely and fully participate in early learning.

Funding is available to help improve child inclusion and participation in early learning by hiring staff to support children who could not otherwise safely attend programming and accessing professional support that increases staff knowledge to better support children.

The deadline to apply is February 29, 2024.
