It takes a village to raise a child. Let us help.
The Marshall County TriShare Pilot Program is an initiative designed to ease the burden of affording quality childcare for eligible working families. With the help of a regional “hub,” the cost of childcare is split three ways between the employee, employer, and the community using funding granted to the United Way of Marshall County from the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration (FSSA). By sharing the financial responsibility among employees, employers, and the FSSA grant funding, the benefits of the program become clear:

An Innovative Approach
The Marshall County TriShare Pilot Program began in early 2024 following a $750,000 grant from the Indiana Family and Social Services Administration. The United Way of Marshall County is 1 of 86 institutions that received a grant from the state of Indiana to provide childcare services. Childcare is essential to advancing educational opportunity and economic mobility by allowing parents to work worry-free and children to spend time with licensed childcare professionals.
The goal of the program is to provide more childcare options to give Hoosiers the flexibility to enter and stay in the workforce and attain a better quality of life for their families. It also helps employers attract and retain talent while providing steady and reliable business to childcare providers. Facilitating access to quality childcare programs falls within United Way’s mission to mobilize community action so all can thrive.
