To State and Territorial Lead Agencies administering child care programs under the Child Care and Development Block Grant Act of 1990 as amended, and other interested parties.
Purpose This Program Instruction (PI) conveys the preprinted State Plan for Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) services for the FFY 2000 - 2001 biennium and provides guidance for completing and submitting it. This Plan is required by Section 658E of the Child Care Development Block Grant Act.
References Section 418 of the Social Security Act; The Child Care and Development Block Grant Act of 1990 as amended. 45 CFR Parts 98 and 99.
Completing the Plan The content of the Plan for the 2000 - 2001 biennium is essentially the same as in the 1998 - 1999 biennium Plan with the Supplemental pages resulting from the regulations of July 24, 1998 integrated into it. Therefore, Lead Agencies will be familiar with the information requested. You should, nevertheless, review the attached guidance as it reflects the current regulations and our experience with the Plans submitted in the past. Lead Agencies should also be guided by the amended Act and the regulations published on July 24, 1998. Each section in this Plan includes a statutory citation or reference to the applicable regulation.
Why detail is important There is considerable public interest in how States operate their CCDF program(s). ACF makes the State Plan information available to many users including members of Congress, Congressional committees, State/local child care administrators, advocacy groups, researchers and the general public. Providing detailed information the State Plan helps the understanding of the CCDF program in your State and may reduce the number of requests for information that you get directly. 
Deadlines & effective dates This Plan must be submitted for ACF review by July 1, 1999. When approved by the ACF Regional Office, the Plans are effective on October 1, 1999. 
Electronic format To assist the Lead Agency in completing this Plan, it is available in word-processing format from the ACF Regional Office.
Reminder: amending the Plan Substantive changes to the CCDF program as described in the approved State Plan must be reflected by amending the Plan per 45 CFR 98.18(b). 
Submitting the Plan Submit copies of the Plan as follows:

1 copy to the
ACF Regional Administrator

1 copy to the
Child Care Bureau
330 C Street S.W.
Washington, D.C. 20447
