Early Care and Education State Budget Actions FY 2017

4/28/2017

NCSL surveyed 50 state legislative fiscal offices on their FY 2015, FY 2016 and FY 2017 state appropriations for various early care and education programs—child care, prekindergarten, home visiting and other related programs. Early Care and Education Budget Actions FY 2017 provides a snapshot of state funding investments from 36 states that responded to the survey in these areas. Click on each of the tabs to see specific changes to appropriations for child care, prekindergarten, home visiting and other early childhood programs that occurred from FY 2016 to FY 2017.

State appropriations provide insight into the different approaches that states take to fund early care and education. Budgeting decisions also show how legislatures most effectively use available federal, state, local and private resources. Some states are increasing investments in child care, preschool programs, home visiting strategies and other initiatives that support healthy development and early learning.

NCSL will release soon a deeper analysis of the data, but high-level highlights include:

Many states reported using Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds for child care. Twenty-four states transferred or directly used TANF funds for child care ranging from $2 million in Texas up to $382 million in California. Arizona reported $2.7 million and North Dakota reported $3.3 million, while Ohio reported $238 million, Wisconsin reported $198 million and Kentucky reported $197 million.
Prekindergarten funding saw general fund increases in Alabama, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio and Oregon. A few states reported using Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) and TANF funding for preschool services.
For home visiting programs, a few states indicated a decrease in federal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) funding, while a handful of states reported appropriating more general fund for home visiting.

Findings from data collected are based on survey results obtained from 36 states. This data does not reflect all budget adjustments made after state budgets were enacted. Also, states report fiscal information differently; some edits were made for consistency purposes. States provided a survey, but not all completed each section of the survey.

States reported using a variety of funding sources to support early childhood programs.

For child care, states reported using state general funds, federal Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) funds, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) funds, Social Services Block Grant (SSBG), federal child welfare dollars, tobacco settlement money, local match, taxes, and licensing fees.

For prekindergarten, states reported using general funds; school aid formula; dedicated funds, which included tobacco and lottery-specific taxes; and state decisions about use of federal sources, including Title I, federal Preschool Development and Expansion Grant funds, CCDBG and TANF.

For home visiting programs, states reported using general funds in addition to federal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting (MIECHV) funds, tobacco settlement funds and taxes, TANF, Medicaid, federal child welfare funds, federal Project Launch and private funds.

For other early childhood initiatives, such as parent education, Head Start state supplement, early intervention and early childhood mental health/social-emotional supports, states reported using general funds in addition to tobacco settlement funds and taxes, TANF, Medicaid, federal child welfare funds, IDEA Part C and public-private partnership funds.

NCSL received survey responses from 36 states. Thirty-three states reported child care information; 31 reported prekindergarten information; 34 reported home visiting information and 30 reported other early childhood appropriations.
