CCDF Expenditures for FY 2020 all appropriation years

CCDF Fiscal Year 2020 State Spending From All Appropriation Years

Priorities Report: 2021

November 16, 2022

The Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) is the primary federal funding source for child care assistance to help eligible working families with low-incomes access child care and to improve the quality of child care for all children. CCDF gives funding to states, territories, and tribes to provide child care subsidies through vouchers or certificates to families with low incomes, or through grants and contracts with providers. CCDF provides access to child care services for working families with low incomes, so parents can work, attend school, or enroll in training. Additionally, CCDF promotes the healthy development of children by improving the quality of early learning and school-age experiences for both subsidized and unsubsidized children. Within the federal regulations, lead agencies administering CCDF decide how to administer the CCDF subsidy programs. Lead agencies determine payment rates for child care providers, copayment amounts for families, specific eligibility requirements, and how to prioritize CCDF services.

These new state-by-state ARP Act Stabilization Funding Fact Sheets include the total number of child care providers assisted in each state as of June 30, 2022. 

This Program Instruction (PI) informs States and Territories that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has approved changes to the Quality Progress Report (QPR) (ACF-218) for the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) program for the Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2022 and provides guidance for completing and submitting the QPR.

This Technical Bulletin describes how to upload the ACF-801 in the Child Care Automated Reporting System (CARS) and how to use the Summary Data Assessment Report (Summary Report or SAR). After uploading the ACF-801 data file into CARS, state/territory users will have access to the SAR report. Effective with the October 2022 report, OCC revised the ACF-801 to include new response categories for several data elements. This bulletin has been updated to reflect the new response categories and basic analysis included in the SAR.
