ARLINGTON, Va., – For National Guard members who are about to deploy there is a lot think about before heading overseas.

Changes have to be made to school and work schedules; arrangements have to be made for routine household chores; but for many, child care is one thing that weighs heaviest on their minds.

For Guard family members, there is help.

The National Guard’s Child Care Subsidy Program works to assist spouses and family members with the costs of child care during deployment.

The program, which has been around for about five years, grew out of a program initially designed for deploying active-duty personnel, said Mike Conner, chief of program services for the National Guard Bureau’s Family Program office.
