The Child Care Access Means Parents in School (CCAMPIS) Program is a federally funded initiative administered by the U.S. Department of Education that supports low‑income student-parents in pursuing postsecondary education. Through competitive grants, CCAMPIS enables institutions of higher education to provide campus-based child care services or subsidies, ensuring that students can balance academic responsibilities with family obligations.
Texas State University has been awarded a $4.7 million Child Care Access Means Parents in School (CCAMPIS) grant from the U.S. Department of Education to support low-income, Pell-eligible undergraduate student parents. The funding will provide childcare subsidies and comprehensive academic and mentoring support to 88 student parents, helping them persist to graduation while also advancing research to strengthen services for student parents.
