The Florida Chamber Foundation and the Early Learning Coalition of Miami-Dade/Monroe invite you to learn about Florida's Child Care Tax Credit. This valuable opportunity can help businesses support working families while potentially reducing state tax liability.

Child care challenges remain one of the largest barriers to workforce participation for parents. To help address this issue, Florida created a Child Care Tax Credit that allows eligible employers to receive tax credits for supporting their employees' child care needs.

Eligible businesses may qualify for tax credits by:

• Making direct payments to child care providers on behalf of employees.

• Operating or partnering to provide employer-supported child care.

• Offering on-site child care programs for employees and their families.

What can employers do now?

• Consult with a tax professional to determine potential eligibility and benefits.

• Assess the child care needs of your workforce.

• Connect with local child care providers and your Early Learning Coalition to explore available options.

Supporting employee child care can strengthen recruitment and retention efforts, reduce workforce disruptions, and help create a family-friendly workplace while taking advantage of available state tax incentives.
