Developmental Disabilities Basic Support and Advocacy Grants — CFDA 93.630

$644.1M in federal obligations is indexed on USAspending.gov for Developmental Disabilities Basic Support and Advocacy Grants (CFDA 93.630). The listing carries 835 awards, 116 recipients, and a 56-jurisdiction geographic count. Those dollars are assistance obligations, not Treasury outlays and not a count of people with developmental disabilities, protection-and-advocacy cases, or council meetings. Eight hundred thirty-five awards against 116 named organizations is a high-row formula file spread across a near-complete map.

Key figures

  • CFDA 93.630 shows $644.1M in USAspending obligations for Developmental Disabilities Basic Support and Advocacy Grants.
  • The listing covers 835 awards and 116 recipients.
  • Awards are coded to 56 jurisdictions in the USAspending geographic count.
  • Totals are obligations, not outlays or caseload counts.

DD basic-support obligations at $644.1M

USAspending.gov records $644,135,319.45 in obligations under CFDA 93.630. Eight hundred thirty-five awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $771,419 per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical Developmental Disabilities Council invoice and not a cost per person served.

The assistance-listing title is DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES BASIC SUPPORT AND ADVOCACY GRANTS. CFDA 93.630 is the identifier. Other ACL or HHS disability listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $644.1M. Combining those codes would invent a combined disability-services total this packet does not contain.

116 recipients and 835 award rows

One hundred sixteen recipients share 835 awards, or about 7.2 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $644,135,319.45 evenly would assign about $5.55 million per recipient. That density is a formula-network pattern: a modest organizational headcount carrying many assistance rows over time — Councils, protection-and-advocacy systems, and related entities as they appear on the extract. The packet does not list the 116. Recipient count is the organizational headcount, not a census of people with developmental disabilities.

Fifty-six jurisdictions in the geographic count cover states plus territories and other coded entities in the USAspending state field. Basic-support dollars still follow allotment formulas as coded, not equal shares. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award rows are not a caseload census

Among HHS disability listings, 93.630 is a high-row formula file: 835 awards against 116 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of advocacy programs” and a worse proxy for people served. Recipients (116) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (835) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report cases, waiting lists, or council memberships. Citing 835 as people served would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions.

Obligations versus advocacy outlays

The $644.1M is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Developmental Disabilities Basic Support and Advocacy awards — are not in the packet. A formula file can show a large obligation stock while reimbursements follow a later calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

Use CFDA 93.630 to size this basic-support and advocacy listing in the assistance file. Do not use it as a Medicaid waiver or vocational-rehabilitation dashboard. Those series live elsewhere. This page reports the obligation book tagged 93.630.

What the 93.630 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a caseload file, not a Council directory, and not a protection-and-advocacy docket. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $644,135,319.45. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 835 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 56 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to grantees.

Developmental Disabilities Basic Support’s 56-jurisdiction map and 116-recipient headcount together describe a high-row formula network, not a Medicaid-waiver caseload file. A researcher comparing 93.630 with vocational-rehabilitation codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. The $644.1M stock is the USAspending obligation book for this listing only.

CFDA 93.630’s 835 awards spread $644,135,319.45 across 116 recipients and 56 jurisdictions.

About 7.2 award records per recipient is the density story on this listing. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards.

Cases, waiting lists, and council memberships live in other HHS disability series. Those rows are outside $644,135,319.45 unless they share CFDA 93.630. Quote 835 as assistance records, 116 as organizational payees, and 56 as the geographic count.
