About this award

The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families awarded the Colorado Department of Early Childhood $29.504 million on October 1, 2025, under the Child Care and Development Fund Mandatory & Matching program (CFDA 93.596), a formula grant supporting low-income family access to child care and quality improvement for all children.

The award runs through September 30, 2028, with performance in Colorado. CCDF Mandatory and Matching funds are mandatory entitlements to states made available under Section 418 of the Social Security Act and are not subject to annual appropriations. Colorado, as the designated lead agency for the state, must develop and submit a three-year CCDF plan to the Administration for Children and Families outlining proposed use of funds in compliance with the Child Care and Development Block Grant Act, including designation of payment rates and sliding fee scales. The lead agency coordinates provision of services with other federal, state, and local child care and early childhood programs and must hold at least one public hearing, with at least 20 days of statewide public notice, to allow public comment on child care service provision under the plan.
