History

Federal law requires state legislatures to appropriate CCDBG funds (P.L. 104-193, Section 901).

The federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, signed into law on March 27, 2020, includes supplemental appropriations for the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) to prevent, prepare for and respond to the coronavirus disease. Arizona's formula-based allocation of CARES Act supplemental CCDBG funding is $88,005,835.

The federal Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021, enacted on December 27, 2020, added an estimated $251,000,000 to Arizona's allocation of CCDBG funds.

The FY 2021 General Appropriations Act appropriated $181,251,300 in CCDBG monies from the CCDF to DES and $882,600 to the Department of Health Services.
