Data as of: 21-AUG-2019

Notes applicable to this table:

  1. The source for this table is ACF-801 data for FY 2018.
  2. All percentages are based on "adjusted" numbers of families and children, unless otherwise indicated. These "adjusted" numbers represent the number funded through CCDF only (which includes Federal Discretionary, Mandatory, and Matching Funds; TANF transfers to CCDF; and State Matching and Maintenance of Effort Funds). The "adjusted" number is the raw or "unadjusted" number reported by the State multiplied by its pooling factor, as reported on the ACF-800.  This report takes this factor into consideration in calculating the "adjusted" numbers or percentages.
  3. A "0%" indication often means the value is less than 0.5% rather than actually zero.  In a few instances, the sum of the categories may not appear to add up to exactly 100% because of rounding.
  4. At the time of publication, American Samoa, Puerto Rico, and Virgin Islands had not yet reported any ACF-801 data for FY 2018. Arkansas, Guam, and Louisiana had submitted 11 months, and North Carolina had  submitted 1 month. All other States and Territories had submitted the full 12 months of data.
  5. The ACF-801 single status definition is as follows: A single parent/adult living with a child who is legally/financially responsible for, and living with a child and where there is no other adult legally/financially responsible for the child in that eligible family. If there is someone else in the household, who does not have legal/financial responsibility for the child, then the legally/financially responsible applicant is still considered a single parent.
  6. "-" indicates data not reported.
  7. Rhode Island informed the Office of Child Care that they have a high number of “Invalid/Not Reported” records because of an extraction logic issue which is also impacting the reporting of the number of protective services cases.
  8. Oklahoma informed the Office of Child Care that they encountered interface problems between their data systems, which is causing a higher number of invalid records and also impacting the reporting of the number of protective services cases.
