For Staff and Faculty

The State of Iowa Child Care Assistance (CCA) Program is available to the children of income-eligible parents who require child care services due to employment or education (undergraduate students only). CCA is administered by the Iowa Department of Health and Human Services and provides payment for child care services directly to the child care provider.

Employees have the option to contribute a portion of their earnings to a Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP) account on a pre-tax basis. By doing so, you may save from 25-40% on eligible dependent care expenses you are already incurring.

Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP)

For eligible staff and faculty, ISU's Adoption Assistance Plan provides reimbursement for all or a portion of the eligible expenses resulting from the adoption of an eligible child.
