CEL Information
 

The Centralized Eligibility List (CEL) is a list of families needing child care assistance in Marin County. Any child care program in Marin County funded by the California Department of Education or any Head Start program in Marin County may call families from this list to offer no or low cost child care.

By placing your name on the eligibility list you may be considered for enrollment by programs serving the entire County, programs serving specific age groups, or by programs serving your child(ren)'s elementary school(s). Any program funded by the California Department of Education that operates within Marin County will be able to view information about you and your family.

If you have children under age 13, you are working, enrolled in school or in a training program, and your family's gross income is less than 75% of the State Median Income, you might be eligible to receive child care assistance.

                                       OR

You may be eligible if you have a four year old who is four years of age on or before December 2; or if you have a three year old who is three years of age on or before December 2, and you wish them to attend a State Preschool. State Preschool is a part day (three hours per day) educational based program.
