Full Analysis

The contract is a $135M block grant from the Administration for Children and Families (HHS) to the Department of Children, Youth, and Families, a state agency. It supports child care and development services under the Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) discretionary program from 2025-2028. Since the recipient is a government entity, no publicly traded company is directly awarded or benefits in a traceable manner.
