Subject:

FFY 2001 Estimated Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Allocations and Estimated Earmarked and Set-Aside Discretionary Funds.

Purpose:

To inform States and Territories of their estimated FFY 2001 CCDF allocations including earmarks for child care resource and referral and school-age child care activities, infant and toddler child care, and quality expansion activities. These earmarks are in addition to the amounts to be spent on quality and availability under section 658G of the Child Care Development Block Grant Act (i.e., such expenditures do not count toward meeting the "not less than four percent requirement.")

Amounts available for FFY 2001:

Attached are tables for States and Territories showing the estimated amounts available for FFY 2001. Please note that these tables include funds that are proposed in the Administration's budget request to Congress as well as the funds that are already appropriated, earmarked, and set-aside. The footnotes to the tables indicate the additional funds, earmark, and set-asides that are subject to Congressional approval. These include the $817 million increase to the Discretionary Fund, the infant and toddler earmark, and the set-asides for child care research and a toll-free child care hotline operated by Child Care Aware.
