Child care provided is for non-traditional hours, i.e., evenings and weekends at no additional costs to parents. The EDC Initiative also helps parents with “child care emergencies” when their regular source of child care is not available. Other approved use includes spouses of deployed or TDY members needing child care created in part by absence of spouse as well as FCC providers that have medical appointments or need substitute care on a limited basis. A written statement is required from Commander or Supervisor to be turned into the FCC office to utilize the EDC program. Contact your FCC Coordinator for more information. RETURNING HOME CARE (RHC) The RHC initiative is a program aimed to help families to reintegrate after a deployment or TDY. Up to 16 hours of free childcare is available for each child. A written statement is required from Commander or Supervisor to be turned into the FCC office to utilize the EDC program. Contact your FCC Coordinator for more information. PCS AND VOLUNTEER CARE Participating providers can provide you with 20 hours of free child care for your PCS move in or out. Volunteer service is awarded 10 hours of free child care per week.
