Specifically, it requires the Department of Human Services to transfer thirty percent of the state's annual TANF block grant to the Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) for funding child care subsidies. The act also stipulates that unspent TANF funds from the prior fiscal year can be expended for allowable TANF activities.
