Creates federal programs to help early childhood educators pay off student loans or get grants for their training.
This bill would create two new federal programs for early childhood educators. One program would help them repay up to $6,000 in student loans each year for five years. This requires them to work in childcare. The other program would offer grants of up to $4,000 per school year for those studying early childhood education, also with a work requirement.
Currently, there are no specific federal programs that help early childhood educators with student loan repayment or offer grants for their training with a service requirement. If this bill becomes law, the Department of Health and Human Services would offer up to $6,000 annually in loan repayment for 5 years of service, and the Department of Education would provide grants of up to $4,000 per academic year for students who commit to working in early learning.
