The MI Tri-Share Child Care Pilot (Tri-Share) is an innovative public/private partnership that shares the cost of child care equally between employers, employees, and the state of Michigan. 

Tri-Share aims to: (1) make child care affordable and accessible for working parents; (2) help employers retain and attract employees, and (3) help stabilize childcare businesses. 

Facilitator Hubs administer the program in twelve regions. All Hubfacilitators, their regions, and contact information can be found on our website by clicking here.
