U.S. Army Awards $25 Million for Child Development Center in South Carolina
The U.S. Army has contracted $25 million for a new child development center at Fort Jackson, Columbia, SC, enhancing military family support. This initiative is funded from the FY 2026 military construction budget, with the aim to provide expanded childcare options for soldiers.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers issued a $25 million contract for a child development center at Fort Jackson in Columbia, South Carolina, on August 3. Cooper Tacia General Contracting Co. was selected for this project from four bidders.
The facility will encompass 37,300 square feet, along with an additional 38,311 square feet designated for a playground. This funding comes from the FY 2026 military construction budget. A similar center is underway at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, also managed by the Army Corps and aimed at increasing childcare availability for military personnel. Such developments are critical for enhancing support services for military families.
