SUPPORTING FAMILIES & PROVIDERS

Footprints Family Foundation, Inc. is a Massachusetts public charity dedicated to expanding access to affordable, high-quality childcare for families in Berkshire County. The organization operates a Childcare Tuition Assistance & Whole-Child Support Program designed to remove both financial and practical barriers to consistent, nurturing childcare.

​
The purpose of the program is to support children, family childcare providers, and working families by ensuring access to stable, licensed family childcare environments that promote health, safety, and development. Rising childcare costs often force families to choose between employment, education, and caregiving. This program bridges the gap for families who may earn too much to qualify for public subsidies yet cannot afford the true cost of quality care.

The Childcare Tuition Assistance & Whole-Child Support Program provides direct tuition payments to qualified, licensed childcare providers on behalf of eligible families. Payments are made directly to participating family childcare providers and ensures funds are used exclusively for childcare services.

​

The program supports providers in every way possible to offer the highest quality care at little to no family cost.
