Notes applicable to this table:
1
The source for this table is ACF-801 data for FY 2002.
2
The National values were determined by multiplying each states percentage by the adjusted number of children served for each State, summing across the States and then dividing by the adjusted number of children served for the Nation. “Adjusted" means adjusted to represent CCDF funding only.
3
Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands were unable to report ACF-801 case-level data before report preparation.
4
Some children are reported to have multiple settings for the same month.
5
If a child utilized more than one of the above categories of settings within the same month, the child was counted in more than one setting. The denominator for all the percentages shown was the number of child-setting-category combinations which results in the totals being exactly 100%.
