Early childhood education educators and early childhood mental health consultants can now apply for loan forgiveness

Up to $5,000 in federal student loan forgiveness is available annually to early childhood education educators and mental health consultants. Priority will be given to those early in their career and bilingual professionals. The first round of applications closes Wednesday, June 15. With limited funds, not all who apply will receive the award. This is a two-year program. Applicants must re-apply annually to be considered.

This program is a partnership between the Office of Early Childhood within the Colorado Department of Human Services and the Colorado Department of Higher Education. Application instructions and a checklist of information can be found on CDHE's website. Additionally, financial wellness support, including help navigating the Federal Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program, counseling to find the best student loan repayment strategy for your situation, and more, will be made available free of charge to up to 3,000 program applicants.

To apply, fill out this form. For questions, please email [email protected].
