Two hundred two awards meet one Oklahoma catalog
This tie keeps USAspending rows where CFDA 93.596 meets Oklahoma as place of performance. The dollar book is $535,926,704.84. The award count is 202. The national Child Care Mandatory and Matching Funds page includes every state. The Oklahoma federal spending hub includes every CFDA coded to OK. This page is the intersection. Open Child Care Mandatory And Matching Funds Of The Child Care And Development Fund in Oklahoma for the overlay that still sums to those two facts.
CFDA 93.596 is titled CHILD CARE MANDATORY AND MATCHING FUNDS OF THE CHILD CARE AND DEVELOPMENT FUND. The catalog is the mandatory and matching slice of CCDF, not every child-care assistance line in the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance. This packet does not publish a discretionary CCDF total, a slot count, or a provider roster. Treating $535,926,704.84 as Oklahoma’s entire early-care budget leaves the definition of the join.
Two hundred two awards is a much larger record count than the single-digit formula cells that often appear on other program–state ties. A higher count can reflect more instruments, more modifications, or more sub-state recipients in the extract. The packet still does not name those recipients or split the 202 rows by county. A large matching-fund total does not prove that Oklahoma added slots because of this cell. Correlation is not causation.
The $2.65 million mean is not a typical voucher
About $2,653,102 per award ($535,926,704.84 ÷ 202) is a blend of 202 instruments. Relative to cells with a handful of billion-scale grants, the mean is smaller because the denominator is larger. It remains far above a household copay and is not a median. One large statewide award can still dwarf many smaller amendments that each increment the 202 count.
Cite both columns. Award count without dollars, or dollars without award count, misstates the cell. USAspending.gov is the source. The facts on this page are state OK, CFDA 93.596, program name Child Care Mandatory And Matching Funds Of The Child Care And Development Fund, $535,926,704.84 in obligations, and 202 awards. SpendingVault does not recast the mean as a weekly tuition figure.

- Why are there 202 awards instead of a handful of large grants?

- Is $536 million Oklahoma’s full federal child-care spending?
