Overview

The Supporting Child Inclusion and Participation (SCIP) program supports and promote access to early learning and child care for all children by funding eligible organizations to create community play-based early childhood program and providing supports for children with developmental needs who require enhanced or individual assistance to safely and fully participate in early learning.

Three funding streams are available, each with its own application process. 

  • Community program funding to create and/or enhance unlicensed play-based early learning opportunities, such as ‘Family & Tot’ groups. Applications for Community Program Funding will now only be accepted every two years. Apply now for funding for 2023-24 and 2024-25. The next call for Community Program Funding will take place in winter 2025.
  • Additional staffing funding to hire a staff member to provide support for one child who could not otherwise safely attend programming or community activities (one-to-one support), or to hire a staff member to support multiple children when the ratio does not allow for a safe and effective learning environment (one-to-multiple support). Applications for Additional staffing are accepted yearly.
  • Program consultation to hire a consultant to help staff increase their skills and knowledge to better to support children in programs. Applications for Additional staffing are accepted yearly.
