Unfortunately, the Governor/Legislature has proposed a state budget that eliminates funding for the continued operations of the Centralized Eligibility List also known as CEL, as of July 1, 2011.
What this means is the “County List”, also known as SJCEL, that your family may have been waiting on is being eliminated as of July 1, 2011. However, the subsidized child care and preschool program funding is still available in San Joaquin County.
If you are still seeking free or reduced child care services or preschool programs in your area, you will now need to directly contact the provider or preschool site of your choice to make sure you are on their individual wait list.
If you do not need any services at this time, but may need services in the future, you will need to directly contact the provider or preschool site as there will no longer be a County waiting list.
Below is a listing of subsidized child care services or preschool programs you may contact directly to request being placed on their individual wait list:
