New York A10520 allows social services districts to set income eligibility standards for child care block grant funds when funds are insufficient.

New York A10520 amends the social services law to allow a social services district to implement an income eligibility standard for recipients of child care block grant funds when the district projects that allocated funds will be insufficient to open all eligible non-guaranteed cases. The initial income eligibility standard is set at no higher than 300% of the federal poverty level, and can be reduced by 25% increments each month until it reaches 175% of the federal poverty level.
