Title 5-B - Child Care Resource and Referral Program
410-S - State Reimbursement.

§  410-s.  State  reimbursement.  1.  The  commissioner shall allocate
annually  any  state  funds,  including  any  available  federal  funds,
appropriated  for  such purposes among the agencies approved for funding
pursuant to this title.  The  commissioner  shall  allocate  such  funds
pursuant to a statewide formula developed by the department, which shall
be  based  upon  the  relative  numbers of children, children in working
families, and children in low income families in each county, as defined
by the department for this purpose.  The commissioner shall  notify  the
legislature  prior  to the implementation of any change or adjustment in
the formula.
  2. As a condition of receiving funds pursuant  to  this  section,  the
child  care  resource  and referral program shall demonstrate that it is
receiving or has an agreement to receive funds, from sources other  than
the  department  pursuant  to this title. Funds other than those paid by
the department pursuant to this title may come from  any  other  source,
including  but  not  limited  to the department or other state agencies,
federal programs such as the United  States  department  of  agriculture
child   care  food  program,  local  agencies,  employers  or  community
organizations,  so  long  as  such  funds  are  for  reasonably  related
services.  To  continue  to receive funds pursuant to this section, such
resource and referral program must demonstrate to the commissioner  that
it  has  secured  funds  or  commitments  from  other  sources  or  that
extraordinary circumstances exist which preclude the  securing  of  such
funds.
  3.  All  applications  approved  by  the  commissioner shall include a
commitment to use appropriate accounting and fiscal  control  procedures
which  shall  include  the filing of an annual financial statement which
has been audited as required by the department so as to ensure:
  (a) the proper disbursement and accounting for funds received; and
  (b) appropriate written records regarding the  population  served  and
type and extent of services rendered.
