Texas Rising Star (TRS) - Provider Overview

Becoming a Texas Rising Star (TRS) provider is a voluntary certification process designed to improve the quality of child care services. A TRS provider is a child care provider that has an agreement with Workforce Solutions Deep East Texas Child Care Services (CCS) to serve families receiving CCS assistance, and that meets requirements exceeding the State’s Minimum Child Care Licensing Standards.

The TRS certification system offers graduated levels of quality, with providers earning a 2-, 3-, or 4-star rating as they meet progressively higher standards.

Certification as a TRS provider is available to:

  • Licensed Child Care Centers
  • Licensed Child Care Homes
  • Registered Child Care Homes

The TRS process enhances the quality of care not only for CCS-subsidized children, but for all children enrolled in certified facilities.
