About this award

The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families awarded $258.338 million to the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services on October 1, 2025, under the Foster Care Title IV-E program (CFDA 93.658), supporting safe and stable out-of-home care for children under state and tribal child welfare agency jurisdiction.

The award obligates quarterly payments through September 30, 2026, based on estimated expenditures claimed by North Carolina and its county social services departments. The North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services distributes Title IV-E funding to 100 North Carolina counties through sub-awards to county departments of social services, enabling foster care case management, permanency planning, adoption assistance, and independent living services for youth aging out of care. Sub-recipients include Cleveland County, Gaston County, Caldwell County, Carteret County, Davidson County, Cabarrus County, Graham County, Dare County, Burke County, Franklin County, Craven County, Caswell County, Currituck County, Clay County, Granville County, Chowan County, Bladen County, Durham County, Catawba County, Beaufort County, Columbus County, Buncombe County, Washington County, Wake County, Alleghany County, Avery County, Vance County, Warren County, Ashe County, Swain County, Yancey County, Carteret County, Dare County, and additional county social services divisions across North Carolina. Place of performance is North Carolina.

The assistance type is a block grant. The Title IV-E Foster Care program operates on a formula basis; quarterly awards are made based on estimated expenditures, later revised to actual allowable claimed costs. The program requires participating states and tribes to maintain Title IV-E plans reviewed by the Administration for Children and Families regional office. Plans may be amended as necessary without requiring renewal.
