John H. Chafee Foster Care Program for Successful Transition to Adulthood — CFDA 93.674

Chafee obligations at $693.6M

USAspending.gov records $693,598,186.75 in obligations under CFDA 93.674. Three hundred forty-five awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $2.01 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical independent-living grant invoice and not a cost per young adult.

The assistance-listing title is JOHN H. CHAFEE FOSTER CARE PROGRAM FOR SUCCESSFUL TRANSITION TO ADULTHOOD. CFDA 93.674 is the identifier. Other HHS child-welfare or Chafee Education and Training Voucher listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $693.6M. Combining those codes would invent a combined transition-services total this packet does not contain.

71 recipients and 345 award rows

Seventy-one recipients share 345 awards, or about 4.9 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $693,598,186.75 evenly would assign about $9.77 million per recipient. That density is a formula-grantee pattern: a modest organizational headcount carrying several assistance rows over time. The packet does not list the 71. Recipient count is the organizational headcount on the federal extract, not a census of county agencies or young adults.

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

Award rows are not a youth census

Among HHS child-welfare listings, 93.674 is a compact formula file: 345 awards against 71 recipients. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of independent-living programs” and a worse proxy for youth served. Recipients (71) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (345) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report caseloads, housing placements, or education-voucher counts. Citing 345 as youth served would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions.

Obligations versus Chafee outlays

The $693.6M is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Chafee awards — are not in the packet. A state 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.

What the 93.674 tables omit

The program hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a youth roster, not an independent-living outcomes file, and not a county directory. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $693,598,186.75. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 345 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 53 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.

Chafee’s 53-jurisdiction map and 71-recipient headcount together describe a formula network, not a county-by-county youth file. A researcher comparing 93.674 with Title IV-E maintenance or Education and Training Vouchers should keep CFDA numbers separate. The $693.6M stock is the USAspending obligation book for this listing only.

Where the 93.674 table lives

The program page overlays these four facts. The all-programs index ranks 93.674 among other assistance listings. Agency pages show awarding-agency rollups that may include this CFDA among other HHS listings. For 93.674 only, start on the program page.

CFDA 93.674’s 345 awards spread $693,598,186.75 across 71 recipients and 53 jurisdictions. Quote award count as a record count, recipient count as the organizational headcount, and dollars as obligations from USAspending.gov. About 4.9 award records per recipient is the density story on this listing. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards.

Independent-living services, housing, and education supports may appear in other HHS codes. Those rows are outside $693,598,186.75 unless they share CFDA 93.674. Quote 345 as assistance records, 71 as organizational payees, and 53 as the geographic count.
