The main purpose of this Emergency Rulemaking Hearing was for the Executive Director to adopt revisions to the Colorado Child Care Assistance Program's (CCCAP) rules, to implement and have the new Federal Poverty Guidelines (FPG) and State Median Income (SMI) levels effective by the deadline on October 1, 2023. The CCCAP rule revisions adopted on an emergency basis ensure alignment with the updated FPG and SMI, address concerns raised by the Office of Legislative Legal Services (OLLS), and provide a general cleanup of the rule language for consistency and clarity. |
