Brochures publicizing the Teen Parent
Assistance for Child Care program have been distributed to all middle and
high schools in Tennessee. Prospective
clients will be directed to call the Child Care Resource and Referral (CCRR)
hotline number (1-866-827-3372). CCRR
staff may refer prospective clients to their local DHS office. Verification that a prospective client is a teen parent may be
obtained via telephone contact with a school representative or face-to-face
interview. Telephone contact
verification must be documented in case history. A face-to-face interview is not required. Upon being determined potentially eligible for child care assistance,
clients have the option to mail or fax an application. Teen parents can only choose a licensed provider. |
