2006 Federal Income Guidelines
A current numerical value system is used to rate the applications submitted for possible enrollment. This system is used for all applications in order to more adequately reflect the overall financial and family situations and to weight these risk factors of our applicants so as to enroll the child or pregnant women with the most need first.
If a child is eligible for services but the program has no current openings available, a waiting list will be established. As openings occur children/pregnant women with the most points (highest on the wait list) are offered services.
