Indianas Child Care Crisis: A Potential $300 Million Lifeline - With tens of thousands of families on a waiting list for child care vouchers, a new law could unlock up to $300 million from a special state fund. However, the solution is not immediate, as the funds need budget agency approval and committee review.

The crisis threatens to shrink options further, with many providers and advocates worried about the lack of affordable spots for children.
