Title: Child Care and Development Block Grant Reporting
Requirements--ACF-700.
OMB No.: 0970-0430.
Description: Thee Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) report
requests annual Tribal aggregate information on services provided
through the CCDF, which is required by the CCDF Final Rule (45 FR parts
98 and 99). Tribal Lead Agencies (TLAs) are required to submit annual
aggregate data appropriate to Tribal programs on children and families
receiving CCDF-funded child care services. The CCDF statute and
regulations also require TLAs to submit a supplemental narrative as
part of the ACF-700 report. This narrative describes child care
activities and actions in the TLA's service area. Information from the
ACF-700 and supplemental narrative report will be included in the
Secretary's Report to Congress, as appropriate, and will be shared with
all TLAs to inform them of CCDF-funded activities in other Tribal
programs.
Respondents: Tribal Governments.
