Tri-Share aims to make child care affordable and accessible for working parents, help employers retain and attract employees, and support child care providers’ sustainability. From the outset, the MWC articulated a set of clear guiding principles to manage the program. Program administrators must ensure that the following principles and priorities are consistently applied in decision making for the Tri-Share Program implementation: Ensure parents participating in Tri-Share have the choice of child care provider(s); Limit the burden to employers and child care providers in determining employee eligibility by requiring hubs to coordinate the eligibility screening process; Help ALICE populations (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) eliminate employment barriers for those who are definitionally in the workforce, but are often underserved by existing local, state, and federal programs.
