description: Texas applies the Local Workforce Development Board's own parent share of cost scale under the Child Care Services program for the Boards where this is true.

# Each Board set its own parent share of cost scale until TWC's TX3C case
# management system launched on January 13, 2025 and brought in the statewide
# scale. TWC phased the statewide scale in as families enrolled or recertified
# through February 1, 2026, and a family could ask for the statewide amount
# sooner if it was lower. The model applies the statewide scale to every family
# from TX3C's launch, as for a family determined then. Where no Board scale
# was found for a period, the model applies the statewide scale instead.
# Board scales here start with BCY 2024 (October 1, 2023), so every Board
# starts false and earlier periods keep the statewide scale. Without that
# first false, the model's backdating of each parameter's earliest value
# to 2015 would switch a Board's scale on from 2015.
# TWC applied the 7 percent of income cap from its July 2024 rule amendments
# with the statewide scale (CCDF State Plan FFY 2025-2027, section 3.1.1), so
# Board scales carry no such cap.

description: Workforce Solutions Borderplex sets this monthly parent share of cost for each additional child in care, by income as a share of state median income, under the Texas Child Care Services program.

# Each bracket covers income more than its threshold share of state median
# income and not more than the next threshold, with the limits rounded to
# whole dollars as in TWC's income ranges.
# Borderplex's chart and the Board's September 21, 2023 approval date the BCY
# 2024 amounts October 1, 2023, and the model follows them; a CEO slide of
# October 17, 2023 lists the increase as effective November 1.
# On November 21, 2024 the Board voted to rescind its local parent share of
# cost policy with TX3C's implementation, then due December 9, 2024. TX3C
# launched January 13, 2025, and the Board's child care page linked the
# October 2024 chart through January 21, 2025, so the model keeps that chart
# until TX3C.
