losing our child care subsidy

So I got a letter from DHR today saying basically we're losing our child care subsidy on November 10. As I read it, only foster parents at the poverty level would qualify now. DH and I have looked at it and even if I quit my job, we'd still not qualify. I'll call the child care management agency tomorrow to verify this.

It just stinks. Now we'll have to use basically our whole board payment for child care, or I'll have to quit my job and stay home with him all day, which we really can't afford right now. I would LOVE to just be a SAHM, but DH really doesn't think we can. How frustrating!
