Child Care/Distance Learning Support

Visit the Employment-Related Day Care (ERDC) website for information about child care subsidies available through the State of Oregon. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the income guidelines have been drastically relaxed, and copays are suspended.

Visit 211info.org to see local child care resources, many of whom are eligible for ERDC payments and/or provide distance learning support.

An increasing number of organizations are offering varying degrees of distance learning support for students. Some ideas:

• Willamalane
• Eugene Science Center
