The state will cut child care assistance subsidies for up to 8,600 low-income families this year because of an $86.6 million shortfall. Many of the preschool students at the Community Action Council's Russell Center are able to attend because of the subsidies. Photo by Pablo Alcala | Staff LEXINGTON HERALD-LEADER Buy Photo
