From Center for Law and Social Policy:
This fact sheet provides a snapshot of participation in the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) program in 2006.
CCDBG served a monthly average of 1.8 million children. While 29 states increased the number of children served, 20 states served fewer children in 2006 than in the previous year.
This fact sheet reviews data, including the ages of children receiving assistance, the types of child care settings used, and the reasons families can receive assistance.
Policymakers and advocates are encouraged to obtain the most recent information about their state---including data on participation, expenditures, income eligibility criteria, and provider reimbursement rates---to evaluate the full range of child care assistance policies.
