Abstract: The authorization to require a Lead Agency in the State or Territory administering a Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) program to submit a plan using the Preprint form is contained in the Child Care and Development Block Grant Act of 1990 (CCDBG Act), 42 U.S.C 9858 as amended by the Child Care and Development Block Grant Act of 2014, Public Law 113-186. To be eligible to receive funds under this program, Section 658E of the CCDBG Act, 42 U.S.C. 9858c, a State or Territory shall prepare and submit to the Secretary an application at such time, in such manner, and containing such information as the Secretary shall require by rule, including a CCDF Plan (OMB 0970-0114) that meets the requirements of Section 658E(c) of the CCDBG Act, 42 U.S.C. 9858c(c). OCC provides State/Territory Lead Agencies with the CCDF Preprint (ACF Form 118) as a useful tool to guide the development and submission of their Plans. In creating a 508-compliant version of the March 12, 2024 approved FY2025-2027 CCDF Plan Preprint and working on the electronic submission system, our teams identified formatting edits that were needed to ensure Lead Agencies were clear on how to respond to questions.
