CFDA Number: | 84.335 - Child Care Access Means Parents in School |
Program Goal: To support the participation of low-income parents in the postsecondary education system through the provision of campus-based child care services. |
Objective 1 of 1: Increase access for low-income parents to postsecondary institutions. |
Indicator 1.1 of 3: Persistence rate: The percentage of program participants who persist in postsecondary education. |
Source: Grantee Performance Report, 18 and 36 months Performance Reports for the Child Care Access Parents in Schools Program. Frequency: Other. Next Data Available: July 2007 Limitations: Grantees attest to accuracy of data. Explanation: These measures have been reformatted from prior year reports to display performance by year without regard to cohort. Data are collected, per program statute, from 18-month and 36-month performance reports. Although data from the 36-month reports are more meaningful for reporting on persistence, data are also presented and projected from 18-month reports. This enables regular annual reporting on program activity. The 67 percent persistence rate, from the 36-month performance reports, reported for 2004-05, is lower than the 36-month persistence rate for 2003-04. The calendar for data collection with reports at 18 and 36 months means that data are not collected in FY 2006, as there were no new competitions in 2003 or 2004. |
Indicator 1.2 of 3: Graduation rate: The percentage of program participants, not including those at four-year institutions, who complete their program of study. |

Next Data Available: July 2007 Limitations: Data are supplied by grantees with no formal verification procedure provided. Grantees attest to the accuracy of the data. Explanation: Data are collected, per program statute, from 18-month and 36-month performance reports. Although data from the 36-month reports are more meaningful for reporting on persistence, data are also presented and projected from 18-month reports. This enables regular annual reporting on program activity. The 24 percent graduation rate, from the 36-month performance reports, reported for 2004-05, is lower than the rate reported in 2003-04 (30 percent). The calendar for data collection with reports at 18 and 36 months means that data are not collected in FY 2006, as there were no new competitions in 2003 or 2004. |
Indicator 1.3 of 3: Efficency Measure: Cost per successful CCAMPIS outcome |
Source: Grantee Performance Report, 18 and 36 months Performance Reports for the Child Care Access Parents in Schools Program. Frequency: Other. Next Data Available: February 2006 Improvements: Program is currently revising Annual Performance Report , which will generate more accurate counts of persistence and completion beginning in 2007. Explanation: The calculation is the annual appropriation for CCAMPIS divided by the number of students receiving CCAMPIS services who persist in or graduate from an institute of higher education. The 2003 appropriation ($16,194,050) divided by the number of CCAMPIS students persisting in and graduating from school during the 2003-04 school year (14,762) = $1,097 |
