Adoption Assistance federal obligations in FY2026

Adoption Assistance overlapping FY2026 — CFDA 93.659

The pair is Adoption Assistance × FY2026. $2,001,803,074 is the obligation aggregate for rows that carry both CFDA 93.659 and fiscal year 2026 on the yearlyTrend table. The FY2026 obligation $2,001,803,074 is 9.3% of the CFDA program total of $21,537,270,895.81. This page does not invent the other fiscal-year rows that sit outside FY2026 on Adoption Assistance. Correlation is not causation: the join does not prove that FY2026 caused Adoption Assistance activity, only that USAspending coded the two keys together. It is not a state ranking or a named adoptive-family list.

SpendingVault indexes the cell from USAspending.gov. The catalog title on the program side is ADOPTION ASSISTANCE. The year on the other side is federal fiscal year 2026. Neither label is a contractor, a place of performance, or an awarding-agency code — this packet publishes no awarding agency and no named recipients. Cite $2,001,803,074 as obligations on the Adoption Assistance–FY2026 pair. Fifty-five FY2026 awards is not 55 children. Do not add the FY2025 93.659 cell into this page.

CFDA 93.659 as the Adoption Assistance side

CFDA 93.659 is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance identifier for Adoption Assistance. The program-wide obligation total in this extract is $21,537,270,895.81 across 336 awards. That figure is a program rollup, not a second headline for the FY2026 cell unless the two amounts match. Do not treat $21,537,270,895.81 as cash Treasury already sent. Agency names, child counts, and subsidy amounts per case are unpublished on this packet.

FY2026 as the Adoption Assistance yearlyTrend cell

Federal fiscal year 2026 is the time key on this yearlyTrend row. The year hub FY2026 federal spending at /fiscal-years/2026/ rolls up every program that year in the index, not only Adoption Assistance. Reading $2,001,803,074 as all FY2026 federal obligations would over-read this cell. The join is one CFDA inside one fiscal year, not a Budget Appendix score.

Do not add Federal Election Commission contribution totals to $2,001,803,074. Campaign-finance receipts and USAspending award obligations are separate public-record systems even when a geography or a calendar year happens to overlap. This packet has no FEC facts. Donations do not fund Adoption Assistance obligations in FY2026.

55 FY2026 awards as a CFDA table, not a child census

The extract lists 55 awards on the Adoption Assistance × FY2026 table. That is an award-record count for this yearlyTrend cell, not a census of adopted children. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications can add rows without naming a new organization. Dividing $2,001,803,074 by 55 is not published here as a typical award size, because the packet does not say the rows are comparable. The program-wide award count is 336, a different denominator.

55 is the award-record count on this FY2026 cell, not a published census of adopted children. Unique vendors and places of performance are unpublished. Do not read 55 as 55 finished projects in Adoption Assistance during FY2026.

Caseload rankings this Adoption Assistance–FY2026 join cannot support

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $2,001,803,074 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared on Adoption Assistance in FY2026 over-reads the field. The join cannot say that Adoption Assistance expanded in FY2026 because of a policy success metric this packet omits. Keep $2,001,803,074 labeled as Adoption Assistance obligations in fiscal year 2026.
