FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Doris Lee, Grants Fiscal Management Specialist, Office of Management Services, Administration for Children, Youth and Families, telephone (202) 205-4626.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 125 (a)(2) of the Act requires that adjustments in the amounts of State allotments shall be made not more often than annually and that States are to be notified no less than six (6) months before the beginning of the fiscal year in which such adjustment is to take effect. In relation to the State DDC allotments, the description of service needs were reviewed in the State plans and are consistent with the results obtained from the data elements and projected formula amounts for each State (Section 125(a)(5)).
The Administration on Developmental Disabilities has updated the following data elements for issuance of Fiscal Year 2001 allotments for the Developmental Disabilities formula grant programs.
-
The number of beneficiaries in each State and Territory under the Childhood Disabilities Beneficiary Program are from Table 5.J10 of the ``Annual Statistical Supplement, 1999 to the Social Security Bulletin'' issued by the Social Security Administration;
-
State data on Average Per Capita Income are from Table 1-- Personal Income and Per Capita Personal Income by State and Region, 1993-98 of the ``Survey of Current Business,'' May, 1999, issued by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, U.S. Department of Commerce; comparable data for the Territories also were obtained from the Department of Commerce September, 1999; and
-
State data on Total Population and Working Population (ages 18- 64) as of July 1, 1998, are from the ``Estimate of Resident Population of the U.S. by Selected Age Groups and Sex,'' issued by the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce. Total population estimates for the Territories, as of 1997, were issued May, 1998 under press release CB98-80.
