COVID-19 Out-of-School Support Grants totaling $6.6 million have been awarded to 42 Wisconsin organizations providing care to school-aged kids during the pandemic, according to a release from Gov. Tony Evers’ administration.

The grants are funded through CARES Act dollars and administered by the Wisconsin Department of Administration. The program provides eligible organizations grant awards to cover pandemic-related impacts such as lost revenue, increased staffing costs, cleaning and sanitizing, and additional costs to ensure programming otherwise impacted by COVID-19.
