Wisconsin Shares for Children in Out-of-Home Care Placements Wisconsin Shares helps eligible families afford quality child care while the parents - or persons taking the place of parents - work and/or attend school, or engage in job training activity. The application process includes an intake interview with an economic support worker to collect and verify eligibility information. The Foster Parent Guide will provide you with information you will need to apply and to maintain eligibility for the subsidy.
