The (CCDF) annual financial reporting form (ACF-696T) provides a mechanism for Indian Tribes to report expenditures under the CCDF program. The CCDF program provides funds to Tribes, as well as States and Territories, to assist low-income families in obtaining child care so they can work or attend training/education and to imrpove the quality of care. Data collected via the ACF-696T allows the ACF to monitor tribal expenditures. This information collection uses the existing ACF-696T form but proposes some clarifications to the form's instructions. Respondents are CCDF tribal grantees.
