Child Development Center Of Jackson County

Child Development Center Of Jackson County is a tax-exempt nonprofit organization operating in Jackson, Ohio, that receives federal grant sub-awards exclusively; the organization does not compete for prime contracts or hold seats on government-wide vehicles. All four recent federal awards are sub-grants from the Ohio Department of Education under the Child Care Food Program (CACFP), the federal initiative that reimburses child care providers for meals served to low-income children.

The organization's entire federal footprint consists of Child Care Food Program sub-awards from the Department of Agriculture's Food and Nutrition Service, flowing through Ohio's state education agency as the prime grantee. In fiscal year 2025 (award date October 1, 2025), the center received two sub-grants: one for direct CACFP meal reimbursement and one for cash-in-lieu reimbursement. The identical pair of sub-awards recurred in fiscal year 2024. Combined obligated dollars across all four awards total $137 thousand over the two-year window — a modest but recurring revenue stream tied to the annual CACFP funding cycle.

Child Development Center Of Jackson County operates solely as a sub-recipient under the CACFP pass-through structure; there is no prime contract or grant work, no IDV participation, and no direct federal customer relationship. The organization's single funding agency is the USDA Food and Nutrition Service, mediated exclusively through the Ohio Department of Education. With four awards in two years and no growth or decline signal in the sparse data, activity appears flat and limited to the annual CACFP recompete cycle. The organization's federal role is narrowly scoped to meal program compliance and reimbursement administration at a single child development facility in Jackson County.
