Source: Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Report of State Plans, FY 2006-2007 (August 2006), by the Child Care Bureau, Administration for Children and Families.
* Data provided for AS, MA and VI are from the FY 2004-2005 CCDF Plans. Rate and age range information is based on subsidy rate tables included in FY 2006-2007 CCDF Plans. Rates provided are for full-time, standard-hour care in licensed centers. Rates are not necessarily the highest rates paid in the State or Territory, but are the rates prevailing in the largest urban area. For some States and Territories, specific age ranges are not defined in the rate schedule submitted with the CCDF Plan. For those with tiered reimbursement systems, which pay higher rates for higher levels of quality, the base rate for licensed child care centers is given. The actual reimbursement amount is a function not only of the amount of care provided, but also the family’s share of fees (i.e., copayment). Some States and Territories have multiple reimbursement rates for school-age care including before- or after-school, summer, holidays and occasional care. For these States and Territories, the before- and after-school rates are included in this table.
