Adoption Assistance federal funding in Connecticut
Adoption Assistance (CFDA 93.659) shows $289,460,272 in USAspending.gov obligations coded to Connecticut, on 6 awards. 6 awards can still hold a nine-figure book when Title IV-E adoption-assistance awards to the state dominate. The implied mean is about $48,243,378.67 per record. This page is a catalog-program × state join, not a child, family, or county census and not an outlay conversion. USAspending.gov is the source table.
Key figures
- CFDA 93.659 × Connecticut records $289,460,272 in USAspending obligations.
- 6 awards sit under that sum; the mean is about $48,243,378.67 per record, not a typical unit.
- Matching Adoption Assistance to Connecticut is not causation and not a child, family, or county census.
- Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays. FEC donations do not fund this cell.
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 Recipients are unpublished.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.
Connecticut's child-welfare stack besides adoption assistance
Connecticut federal spending is the all-program parent. Connecticut programs lists other catalogs beside 93.659. Quoting $289,460,272 as the state's complete federal footprint would drop every other line, including foster care IV-E (93.658), TANF, or Guardianship Assistance.
Place of performance as Connecticut locates tagged awards; it does not deposit the dollars in Hartford's treasury. New Haven is not a named recipient of $289,460,272. Stamford folklore is not a metro split of the 6 awards.
Adoption-assistance obligations are not subsidies already mailed
$289,460,272 remains an obligation aggregate. Outlays are unpublished. Drawdowns can lag. Cite the commitment field, not a cash story. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov for this 93.659 × CT pair.
New Haven-versus-Stamford folklore is not a split of the 6 awards. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not invent a fiscal year. Keep the obligation label on $289,460,272. Do not treat a state appropriations chart as this cell unless it uses CFDA 93.659, Connecticut geography, and the obligation metric.
How to cite the 93.659–Connecticut pair
Cite: Adoption Assistance (CFDA 93.659) obligated $289,460,272 on 6 awards coded to Connecticut, per USAspending.gov. Keep both keys. Keep the word obligations. Internal links: Adoption Assistance in Connecticut, CFDA 93.659, Connecticut federal spending, Connecticut programs, and All spending ties.
Later bulk files can move the dollars and the 6-award count. Prefer the overlay Adoption Assistance in Connecticut when the live table and this snapshot diverge. CFDA 93.659, Connecticut federal spending, Connecticut programs, and All spending ties are parent hubs, not competing sums.
What six Connecticut adoption-assistance rows cannot stretch into
A ties page will not rank Connecticut against New York, Massachusetts, or Rhode Island. Peer Adoption Assistance totals are not in these facts. 6 awards will not be recast as a child, family, or county census. Correlation is not causation.
Keep Adoption Assistance, Connecticut, $289,460,272, and 6 awards together in every reuse. Place of performance as CT locates the tagged awards; it does not prove every dollar stayed inside Connecticut after obligation. Hartford folklore is not a split of the 6 awards, and New Haven is not a named recipient of $289,460,272.
USAspending obligations can be positive new awards or net of downward modifications; $289,460,272 is the net total supplied in the facts. Treat 6 as a record count in an aggregate, not as 6 finished program years. Award modifications can sit beside base records in the same row count. The mean of about $48,243,378.67 per record will mislead anyone who treats it as a typical adoption-subsidy year and not a typical family payment.
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.
