Source: Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) Report of State and Territory Plans, FY 2006-2007 (2007), by the Child Care Bureau, Administration for Children and Families. 

NR=Not Reported; NA=Not Applicable; NK=Not Known

Note: Fourteen States (AZ, DC, FL, GA, ID, KY, MA, MN, MT, NJ, PA, RI, VA, WI) and two Territories (CNMI, GU) report using Federal Poverty Income   Guidelines instead of SMI. PR report using the Housing and Urban Development Administration median income established for Section 8 applicants. American Samoa and the Virgin Islands use the Territories’ median income to determine the income eligibility threshold for child care services. The numbers for the monthly income eligibility level as a percentage of SMI are rounded to the nearest whole number. CCDF Plan data for FY 2006-2007 are not available for AS, MA or VI.
