The Early Learning Division (ELD) operates programs for children birth through five and their families. These
programs offer high-quality early care and education services to families who face economic challenges.
The Preschool Promise Program (PSP) is a high-quality, publicly funded preschool program that serves families with
incomes at or below 200 percent of the Federal Poverty Level and children in foster care. PSP is delivered in a
variety of settings including centers, homes, and schools.
Eligibility:
Children must be at least three years old, but not older than five years of age, as determined by the date used to

to two years.
Children must be members of families whose incomes, at the time of enrollment, are at or below 200 percent of
the Federal Poverty Guidelines (https://aspe.hhs.gov/poverty-guidelines) or a child in the foster care system as
