Notes applicable to this report:

  1. The source for this table is ACF-801 data for FY 2017.
  2. All percentages are "adjusted" numbers of families or children, unless otherwise indicated. These "adjusted" numbers represent the number funded through CCDF only. Where the number is identified as an "unadjusted" number, this represents the raw number of families or children reported by the state in the ACF-801. The "adjusted" number is the raw or "unadjusted" number reported by the State multiplied by its pooling factor, as reported on the ACF-800. A few states have indicated that the pooling factor reported on the ACF-800 is not applicable to the ACF-801. This report takes all these factors into consideration in calculating the "adjusted" numbers or percentages.
  3. At the time of publication, American Samoa had not yet reported ACF-801 data for FY 2017 and Puerto Rico had submitted 9 months.  All other States and Territories had submitted the full 12 months of data. All other States and Territories had submitted the full 12 months of data. 
  4. 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.
  5. In a few instances, the sum of the categories may not appear to add up to exactly 100% because of rounding.
  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 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 number of protective services cases.
