Basic Allowance for Child Care

We have been exploring the Basic Allowance for Child Care (BACC) model for several years as we seek solutions to modernize child care systems and better serve the evolving needs of families. BACC is a fundamental reimagining of what child care support systems should look like, focused on cost efficiency, mission readiness, and family choice. Functioning similarly to the current Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH), BACC is a natural extension of existing military trust-based allowances that address concerns with current child care programming.
