Guidance: For reporting purposes, the Child Care Bureau needs to know about the number of children and families served only through the Child Care and Development Fund. The CCDF comprises of the following: Discretionary Funds, Mandatory Funds, Federal Matching Funds, State Matching Funds (from any allowable source under Section 98.53), MOE Funds (from any allowable source under Section 98.53), transfer from TANF into Discretionary Fund, and funds for quality earmarks and administration. Many lead agencies, however, combine non-CCDF monies to serve the child care needs of their state and do not serve children exclusively with CCDF funds (this is called "pooling"). To ease reporting requirements for those states, ACF has established a methodology for reporting which allows states to report on all children served when CCDF funds are combined with other monies to serve children. Examples of funds that states and territories often include in their pool are: Title XX funds, Title IV-E funds for children in foster care, Welfare to Work (WtW) funds, non-compulsory education programs, Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Child Care funds, state-only funds not used for MOE or Matching, or other funds not used for matching. If your state or territory pools non-CCDF funds with CCDF funds, and you are not able to identify which family receives only CCDF funds, answer "Yes" to element #17.
