Implications of Child Care and Development Block Grant Reauthorization for State Policies

These briefs from the Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation (OPRE) draw on the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Policies Database, a source of information on the policies used to operate childcare subsidy programs under CCDF. The briefs examine several state/territory policies that were in effect as of October 1, 2014, a month prior to the reauthorization of the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG). The briefs cover changes to job search policies, changes to requirements for legally unregulated childcare providers, and changes to requirements for ongoing eligibility.
