Preschool Open Doors
Thank you to those who applied in May, 2018 for the Preschool Open Doors (POD) program. Eligible families will be notified in writing of the status of their child’s Preschool Open Doors subsidy award. For additional information, please contact us at 791-2130 (Oahu) or 1-800-746-5620 (toll-free for neighbor islands).
Preschool Open Doors understands the importance of child care. Preschool prepares children for kindergarten by teaching social skills and recognition of shapes and some letters. It allows children to explore and discover their world in an environment where they learn through hands on play experiences.
Preschool Open Doors (POD) promotes school readiness by providing child care subsidies to eligible families for the year prior to kindergarten. The Department of Human Services (DHS) contracts with PATCH to run the program. The DHS administers the program.
