OCC Tribal Cluster Training: Supporting New Tribal CCDF Administrators

The Office of Child Care (OCC) is pleased to invite you to the upcoming OCC Tribal Cluster Training: Supporting New Tribal CCDF Administrators. This 2-day training will be held on August 27–28, 2024, at the Gila River Resorts – Wild Horse Pass in Chandler, Arizona. It is designed to help new Tribal Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) administrators who have been in their roles for 18 or fewer months understand CCDF program requirements and apply those requirements to the implementation of their CCDF programs.

This training is available for both direct-funded Tribal lead agencies (TLAs) and those whose CCDF programs are consolidated into Public Law 102-477 plans. As an attendee at this cluster training, you will have opportunities to do the following:

• Participate in a gradual learning experience about the CCDF program requirements, including a pretraining new administrator orientation session.
• Engage in training presentations, discussion groups, and peer-to-peer exchanges to inform your understanding of CCDF program requirements according to your TLA’s allocation size.
• Consider opportunities for the effective use of CCDF program funds.
• Identify next steps to ensure that your TLA services continue to meet the needs of the children and families you serve.

Each TLA is invited to bring two participants; OCC recommends bringing the new Tribal CCDF Administrator (or Co-Administrator) and a fiscal staff member, prioritizing those fiscal staff who are new to their role with CCDF. If you would like to bring more than two people, please email your request to occ-cmc@strategixmanagement.com, copying your Regional Program Manager, as soon as you can.
