The purpose of the ECE Grant is to provide high-quality early learning services to Ohio’s preschool age children and help to prepare children for success in kindergarten. The state funded ECE Grant is awarded to early care and education programs who provide developmentally appropriate learning environments that address the outcomes and goals essential for healthy development and academic growth. 
Governor Mike DeWine and Ohio’s General Assembly demonstrated the state’s commitment to early childhood education when House Bill 33 was signed into law. Ohio currently allocates funding for over 30,000 children. The ECE Grant is a critical investment in Ohio’s youngest learners.
ECE Grant funds are awarded to existing high-quality early care and education programs within high-needs areas of the state. Programs that receive the grant include public preschool programs, Joint Vocational schools (JVS), Board of Developmental Disabilities, chartered non-public schools, private preschool programs, Head Start programs, childcare centers and family childcare homes.
