Do you need help paying for childcare?

The Sonoma County Centralized Eligibility List (Sonoma-CEL) is an internet-based, countywide database of families applying for subsidized childcare. The database is accessed by all the agencies in the county that provide state subsidized childcare. When these agencies have openings, they will look for the most eligible children in the county to fill their open slots. In addition, agencies that refer families for subsidized childcare have access to entering families onto the CEL.To go to the Sonoma CEL website please click on this link: Sonoma CEL
