Are you opening a childcare centre in Alberta?

If you aren't licensed yet, there's a good chance you didn't receive yesterday’s CWELCC funding announcement.

That announcement could significantly affect whether your future childcare program qualifies for affordability funding.

If you're:
✓ In licensing
✓ Building a centre
✓ Looking for a location
✓ Securing financing
✓ Planning a childcare project

Don't make your next decision without understanding these changes.

Many future non-profit programs that have not reached certain licensing milestones may no longer be eligible for affordability funding, even though they can still become licensed and open.

Join us as we break down exactly what changed, who is affected, and what it means for future operators.

📢 Important Update for Child Care Operators in Alberta

The Government of Alberta has announced significant changes to affordability funding eligibility for new and expanding non-profit child care programs.

Effective June 4, 2026, new non-profit applicants must have already reached specific milestones in the licensing process to remain eligible for affordability funding. Existing non-profit programs will also face new limits on funded space expansions beginning June 19, 2026.

If you have a licensing application in progress, are planning a new centre, or are considering an expansion, it is important to review these changes and understand how they may affect your project.

The Churcher Group is reviewing the details and helping operators navigate the implications of these announcements. If you have questions about how these changes impact your centre, contact our team.
