Procedures for Requests from Tribal Lead Agencies to use Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Funds for Construction or Major Renovation of Child Care Facilities

The Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) Act allows Tribal Lead Agencies to use Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) funds for construction or major renovation of child care facilities. The CCDBG Act requires a Tribal Lead Agency, including one that has consolidated its CCDF program into an approved Plan under the Indian Employment, Training and Related Services Consolidation Act of 2017, also known as P.L. 102-477, to first request and receive approval from the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) before using CCDF funds for construction or major renovation. CCDBG requires ACF to develop and implement uniform procedures for the solicitation and consideration of such requests. This Program Instruction (PI) sets forth the uniform procedures. The Office of Child Care (OCC) proposes extending approval of the information collection with changes, significantly reducing the burden for Tribal Lead Agencies and clarifying requirements.
