Estimated Census Adjustment on °µÍø51 Grantees' 2014 Funding
Public Law 112-55 requires °µÍø51 to reallocate °µÍø51 basic field funding among service areas in FY2013 and FY2014 based on the Census Bureau’s most recent estimates of the geographic distribution of the U.S. poverty population. The reallocations based on the updated poverty data were partially implemented in 2013. 2014 grant payments will be based on the full Census adjustment.
°µÍø51 is providing information that shows the estimated impact of the full Census adjustment on grantees’ 2014 °µÍø51 funding assuming that °µÍø51’s FY2014 basic field appropriation is the same as it was in FY2013.. The table below provides the following information for each grantee:
- The actual FY2013 funding level. The FY2013 level reflected the 25% Census adjustment, the 5% sequester, and the 1.877% rescissions.
- The estimated FY2014 funding level. This estimate reflects the full Census adjustment and assumes that the FY2014 °µÍø51 appropriation for basic field funding remains the same as for FY2013. °µÍø51 cannot accurately predict what the actual 2014 °µÍø51 appropriation for basic field funding will be.
