Anyone is eligible to apply, however, not everyone who applies may qualify to receive financial assistance. Whether you qualify for a financial assistance discount or not will depend on a combination of your household size and income. 

The amount of financial aid we can provide is tied to our end-of-year fundraising campaign, so the amount we’re able to give out each year varies, thus the following changes in this year’s Y for All program: 

• A new application process with required income documentation (in the form of pay stubs and tax documents) at the time of application. 
• To be considered for childcare discounts at our Early Learning Centers and School-Age programs, families must first apply for Working Connections Childcare (WCCC) subsidies through the Washington State Department of Child, Youth, and Families (DCYF) by contacting the Child Care Subsidy Contact Center at 1-844-626-8687 or online at https://www.washingtonconnection.org/home/. If denied state subsidies, then you may be eligible for a Y for All childcare discount. If approved for state subsidies, you are not eligible for a Y for All childcare discount. 
• Program discounts, including childcare, are capped at 20%. Our member prices are already 30% discounted from the market rate, so your total savings will equal 50%.

Did you know? Our childcare programs have tiered pricing: a member rate and a community member rate. The member rate, which is lower than the community member rate, is only available to families who have an active Family Membership at the main Y at Hoag. 

If you are interested in applying for a childcare discount and do not currently have a child(ren) enrolled in one our programs, before you apply for a Y for All discount, please email Darci Hart ([email protected]) or call 360-630-3911 to inquire about site specific availability.

If awarded a Y for All discount, you will receive an email from our team with the discount you qualify for. You must accept/decline the offered discount within 30 days before needing to reapply. After the 30 days have passed, you’ll need to reapply for a discount because we will delete your application and accompanying documents to ensure data privacy and security. 

Yes, you may put your account on hold for up to 3 months. However, putting your account on hold won’t extend the expiration date of your discount. 

Yes. Because our process for determining assistance is based on income and the number of people in your household, you will need to reapply and indicate all the people you’d like on your membership. 

Any changes to your membership will need to be made by the primary member on your account.
