ECEAP is a Washington State funded FREE PRESCHOOL program with 25 locations throughout the County. We focus on the well-being of each child, and help him or her prepare for kindergarten. Our team of specialists work with families, providing health, nutrition and family resources.
Income Guidelines are used as a starting point to review each application on a case-by-case basis. Children in foster care or kinship care and children adopted from foster care or from an orphanage in another country are eligible for ECEAP. Families involved with CPS, FAR or ICW, and families experiencing homelessness, are prioritized for enrollment.
