    Hi,
    I am in the PAS program and enrolled in CMMC School of Nursing. Check with your local DHHS office. If you are accepted into the program (low income based and no previous degree, etc.) they do cover childcare costs while you attend school. They have certain guidelines you have to meet before you can qualify. The ASPIRE (PAS) program is extremely helpful and I am so very thankful for it!

    I used that program when I was in school for LPN. It was amazing!!! I had two small children and was married, and still got help. I would not be where I am today if it weren't for that program!!
