Fiscal year 2006 is the first full year to be planned without the consolidated allocation structure that existed from 1998 until August 2004. For state fiscal year (SFY) 2006 the creation of a separate Child Care 2 allocation allows ODJFS to secure a part of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds for child care while remaining compliant with federal and state regulations. This allocation is being issued in compliance with rule 5101:9-6-02 of the Administrative code.
Allocations are based on the availability of federal funds and appropriations by the Ohio General Assembly and are subject to reductions if ODJFS determines that available federal funds or state appropriations are insufficient to support the allocation.
If you have any questions regarding this allocation as established in rule 5101:9-6-11.1 of the Administrative Code, please contact your fiscal supervisor or Don Foster, Section Chief, County Finance, at (614) 752-9194.
