What is the Louisiana School Readiness Tax Credit (SRTC)?
The SRTC’s are a package of refundable state tax credits designed to support and enhance the quality of early childhood education in the state. The SRTC became law R.S. 47:6107 during the 2007 regular session of the Louisiana Legislature. The tax credits became effective January 1, 2008.

Impact to the Community
For every dollar spent on quality early child education, taxpayers save up to $17 with improved school performance, reduced crime costs and welfare costs, increased wages and more.
