FY 2017 Final Data Table 2 - Percent of Children Served by Payment Method

Data as of: 02-AUG-2019

Notes applicable to this table:

1. The source for this table is ACF-800 data for FY 2017.  The ACF-800 is based on an annual unduplicated count of families and children; i.e., a family or child that receives one hour of service on one day is counted the same as a family or child that receives full-time care throughout the fiscal year.
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, Puerto Rico had not submitted their ACF-800 for FY 2017 and Mississippi and Virgin Islands had reported only partial data. All other States and Territories reported ACF-800 data.
5. "-" indicates data not reported. Mississippi and Virgin Islands did not fully report payment methods.  While the unduplicated counts of children served are included in the final column of the table, they are not included in the denominator for the calculation of percentage of children served by payment method.
6. The National Total row does not include the data from Mississippi and Virgin Islands because they did not fully report payment data, nor from Puerto Rico because it did not report  ACF-800 data. See footnotes #4 and #5.
