Child Care and Development Block Grant in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania × 93.575 is a CCDF join, not a slot census

This page pairs CFDA 93.575, CHILD CARE AND DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT, with Pennsylvania place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $2,658,194,031 on 10 awards. The join is HHS's Child Care and Development Block Grant listing crossed with a Pennsylvania location field, not Pennsylvania's entire HHS book and not a count of subsidized child-care slots. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking, and not a claim that 10 awards equal that many child-care slots, providers, or children served.

Head Start, TANF, and other HHS listings sit outside this total unless they also carry 93.575. Correlation between this obligation sum and local need statistics is not causation. Those statistics are not in the packet. Pennsylvania (PA) excludes New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Maryland, Delaware, and West Virginia. A New Jersey CCDF award is another cell. Place of performance as Pennsylvania locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $2,658,194,031 in the state treasury.

Ten HHS rows behind a $2.66 billion book

Mean obligation is about $265.82 million if $2,658,194,031 were divided evenly across 10 lines. That ratio is a quotient of two packet facts, not a published typical award. Ten records against $2,658,194,031 is a thin CCDF file: state-agency vehicles, not a row per provider. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations. It is not a census of child-care slots, providers, or children served.

Ten awards are scannable on the overlay. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Child Care And Development Block Grant in Pennsylvania for the stored table. Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and rural counties are unpublished. Ten awards are not ten providers. The $2,658,194,031 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.

Questions

How much Child Care And Development Block Grant funding is obligated in Pennsylvania?

USAspending.gov shows $2,658,194,031 in obligations for CFDA 93.575 with Pennsylvania as place of performance, across 10 awards. The sum is a commitment total on assistance awards, not outlays and not Pennsylvania's entire federal-spending total. Other listings are outside this join unless they also carry 93.575.

Do 10 awards equal 10 Pennsylvania child-care providers?

No. Award count is a row count of assistance awards and can include continuations. It is not a census of child-care slots, providers, or children served. The packet does not name recipients. See Child Care And Development Block Grant in Pennsylvania for named lines as USAspending stored them. The implied mean near $265.82 million is a ratio, not a typical unit.

Is this Pennsylvania's entire Pennsylvania child-care budget?

No. The join is CFDA 93.575 crossed with Pennsylvania place of performance. Related programs on other CFDA numbers are not inside $2,658,194,031 unless the award also carries 93.575. Head Start, TANF, and other HHS listings sit outside this total unless they also carry 93.575. Mixing catalogs would invent a combined figure the packet never computed.

Is the Child Care And Development Block Grant total already paid in Pennsylvania?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on assistance awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $2,658,194,031 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Completed activity and remaining balances are not published in this packet.
