Public assistance
Under current law, DCF allocates specific amounts of federal moneys in each fiscal year, including Child Care Development Funds (CCDF) and moneys received under the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) block grant program, for various public assistance programs and for child care-related purposes, including its day care licensing activities. This bill increases, decreases, and continues those allocations, and makes a new allocation for services provided under the child welfare program improvement plan developed under federal regulations.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
