From the Office of Tom Wolf

Governor Tom Wolf today announced an initial distribution of $51 million of funding from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act funding to support child care providers around Pennsylvania. Distributed in partnership with the General Assembly, this initial funding will reach nearly 7,000 child care centers.

As Pennsylvania plans to safely reopen the economy and recover from COVID-19, Governor Tom Wolf announced the creation of the Commonwealth Civilian Coronavirus Corps, a public service initiative that will support efforts this fall to increase testing and contact tracing and provide critical new job opportunities in the public health sector.

“Support for the Commonwealth’s first responders is a cornerstone of our public health system,” Owlett said. “If we do not take care of our first responders by giving them the support and tools they need to do their jobs, they cannot take care of us. This new law will ultimately help ensure the health and safety of our communities across the state.”
