Select yes even if E&T funds are not being used. Yes No Provide a URL link or describe in a written response: the payment rates for childcare reimbursements, established in accordance with the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) based on local market rate surveys. Child Care Assistance through CCDBG is available for families receiving Food Assistance and participating in approved work activities. There is no family share assigned for these situations. Rates are determined based on the provider type, county of the provider, and age of the child. The rates are established based on the most recent Market Rate Survey and Narrow Cost Analysis that consider the cost of meeting the required health and safety regulations. Because the E&T program is a mandatory program for work registrants aged 18-59 without dependents, it is unlikely these individuals will have a need for child care; however, DCF allows the option for those with shared custody of a child. How is childcare paid for? Direct payment to provider Reimbursement to participants Provider voucher Contract for dependent care Other If dependent care agencies have a waiting list or otherwise cap the number of enrolled dependents, how will the State agency ensure E&T participants with dependent care needs receive dependent care? There is not a current waitlist for Child Care Assistance in Kansas, and we do not cap the number of enrolled dependents. If a waitlist is needed, we will apply established priorities for services with the highest priority 1/29/26, 8:20 AM State Plan KS FY26 - Amendment 1 https://dam-fns.usda.gov/sites/default/files/microsite/snapet-ksfy26stateplan//index.html 37/71
