Eligibility is determined by both income and family size. Families who earn up to 150% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) may qualify and may remain funded up to 85% of the State Median Income (SMI). For example, a family of three could earn up to $31,170 a year and still qualify to begin services.

Children must live in a low-income family where parent/guardians work or attend school at least 20 hours per week. Gross income must be at or below 150% of the federal poverty for family size.
