SUBJECT: Chafee State Match Allocation

In accordance with Amended Substitute House Bill 483 of the 130th General Assembly, the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) is issuing state funding to Public Children Services Agencies (PCSAs) to be used as a match for eligible federal Title IV-E Chafee expenditures.

ODJFS will follow the methodology set forth in rule 5101:9-6-35 of the Administrative Code to distribute Chafee State Match Allocation funding. PCSA's may only use the allocation to cover the 20% local a match requirement for federal Chafee.

ODJFS will issue coding for the Chafee State Match Allocation via a Bureau of County Finance and Technical Assistance (BCFTA) update. Funds must reported and liquidated by September 30, 2015.

Please contact the Office of Families and Children for questions regarding funding and allowable activities. Please contact your ODJFS Fiscal Supervisor or the Bureau of County Finance and Technical Assistance for questions regarding coding at (614)752-9194.
