Adoption Assistance in Connecticut

Six Connecticut adoption-assistance awards

Read Adoption Assistance in Connecticut as the filtered table; this page is the prose overlay for the same cell. Adoption Assistance (CFDA 93.659) with Connecticut place of performance sums to $289,460,272 on 6 awards. USAspending.gov is the source. The join is not a child, family, or county census.

Implied mean obligation is about $48,243,378.67 ($289,460,272 ÷ 6). That ratio is not a typical adoption-subsidy year and not a typical family payment. Title IV-E adoption-assistance awards to the state explain large dollars beside a limited row count. Recipients are unpublished.

Hartford did not earn the sum by sitting on a CT tag. Matching 93.659 to Connecticut is not a ranking. Awards tagged to New York, Massachusetts, or Rhode Island are other cells. Foster care IV-E (93.658), TANF, or Guardianship Assistance stay outside $289,460,272 unless they also carry 93.659. FEC donations do not fund this USAspending cell. The overlay Adoption Assistance in Connecticut is the live table.

CFDA 93.659 without an adoptive-family roster

Official catalog title: ADOPTION ASSISTANCE. That string is catalog language. It does not grade Connecticut's adoption system. The nationwide 93.659 page includes other geographies, so it is not this cell.

ACF adoption-assistance claims and state DCF subsidy files answer questions this packet cannot. Mixing those sources with the obligation sum would invent a combined total. Hartford-versus-New Haven folklore is not stored here. Foster Care Title IV-E (93.658) stays outside this cell unless it also carries 93.659.

Questions

How much Adoption Assistance is obligated in Connecticut?

USAspending.gov records $289,460,272 in CFDA 93.659 obligations across 6 awards coded to Connecticut. That is a program × state join, not an outlay and not Connecticut's full federal total. Keep both the program name and Connecticut in any citation.

Do 6 awards mean 6 Connecticut adoptive families?

Award count is a row count. $289,460,272 ÷ 6 is about $48,243,378.67 per record as a mean, not a typical adoption-subsidy year and not a typical family payment. Title IV-E adoption-assistance awards to the state can dominate dollars. This packet does not list recipients. See Adoption Assistance in Connecticut for the stored table.

Is this the same cell as Connecticut foster-care IV-E?

No. The $289,460,272 and 6 awards are USAspending.gov obligation records for CFDA 93.659 with a Connecticut geography tag. Foster care IV-E (93.658), TANF, or Guardianship Assistance are separate joins. Those dollars sit outside this cell. Mixing those files with this join would invent a figure the packet does not support.

Where is the live Connecticut × 93.659 overlay?

Adoption Assistance in Connecticut is the overlay. See Connecticut federal spending, Connecticut programs, CFDA 93.659, and All spending ties. Later bulk files override this snapshot. Keep the obligation label on $289,460,272. Do not invent a fiscal year.
