Whether you’re just beginning to explore care options or managing ongoing responsibilities, we’re here to provide the guidance and resources you need.

Dependent Care Subsidy Program

In support of the changing needs of families, the University’s Dependent Care Subsidy Program provides subsidies to eligible faculty and staff to assist with caring for an adult dependent. The tax-free subsidy can be used to pay expenses on eligible dependent care costs provided by qualified caregivers. The subsidies are deposited into a Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (FSA) on behalf of the eligible employee. Visit the Dependent Care Subsidy Program webpage to learn more.
