Child-welfare services obligations at $1.14 billion

USAspending.gov records $1,139,439,256.55 in obligations under CFDA 93.645. Nine hundred thirty-five awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $1,218,651 per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical county child-welfare grant and not a cost per child. The $1,139,439,256.55 figure is an obligation sum from the assistance extract, not an outlay.

The assistance-listing title is STEPHANIE TUBBS JONES CHILD WELFARE SERVICES PROGRAM. CFDA 93.645 is the identifier. Other child-welfare listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $1.14 billion. Combining those codes would invent a combined total this packet does not contain. Keep 93.645 separate on the programs index.

247 recipients and 935 award rows

Two hundred forty-seven recipients share 935 awards, or about 3.8 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $1,139,439,256.55 evenly would assign about $4.61 million per recipient. That density is a state-and-tribal formula pattern: many named organizations carrying several assistance rows over time. The packet does not list the 247. Recipient count is not a census of county agencies, caseworkers, or children.

Fifty-five jurisdictions in the geographic count cover states plus territories and other coded entities in the USAspending state field. Child-welfare-services dollars still follow statutory allocations, not equal shares. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award rows are not a caseload census

Among HHS child-welfare listings, 93.645 is a Title IV-B formula file: 935 rows against 247 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of children in care” and a worse proxy for investigations or foster homes. Recipients (247) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (935) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report caseworker headcount, maltreatment findings, or reunifications. Citing 935 as children served or 247 as county offices would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $1,139,439,256.55 stock is the obligation book only.

Obligations versus child-welfare outlays

The $1,139,439,256.55 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Stephanie Tubbs Jones Child Welfare Services awards — are not in the packet. A formula child-welfare file can show a large obligation stock while quarterly draws 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.

What the 93.645 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a child roster, not a court docket, and not a foster-home inventory. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $1,139,439,256.55. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 935 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 55 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. A researcher comparing 93.645 with other child-welfare codes should keep CFDA numbers separate. Stephanie Tubbs Jones Child Welfare Services is a 935-row, 247-organization book. Read the $1,139,439,256.55 as the USAspending obligation stock for CFDA 93.645 only. Other Title IV-B codes stay outside this total.
