Section 144-610-4 - ADMINISTRATION

As a Title IV-A Agency, the Bureau of Income Maintenance has elected to determine eligibility for MARCC. The Division of Purchased and Support Services, as the agency responsible for administration of Title XX child care and the child care voucher program, as well as being responsible for the funding and coordination of the community based Voucher Management Agencies (VMA's) operates the program using Title XX slots, or vouchers issued and administered through the VMA's. BIM and DPSS jointly develop all rules and procedures for MARCC. However, BIM has final approval of such rules and procedures. The provisions of coordination and mutual responsibilities of BIM and DPSS are set forth in a written working agreement which may be updates as necessary.
