High Priority Investigation Targets
Facilities with both PPP loans AND alleged fraud indicators
⚠️ Why These Cases Matter
These facilities represent the intersection of two major alleged fraud vectors: they received federal PPP loans during COVID-19 AND exhibit patterns associated with alleged childcare fraud (short operation periods, COVID-era licensing, closures). This combination warrants priority investigation as it may indicate double-dipping on federal assistance programs.

How These Cases Were Identified
These facilities were identified by cross-referencing two datasets:
- CCLD Licensing Data: California childcare facility licensing records with alleged fraud risk scoring based on patterns from the Feeding Our Future case
- SBA PPP Loan Data: Paycheck Protection Program loan recipients in California's childcare sector
Facilities appearing in both datasets with elevated risk scores (5+) are flagged as high priority. Key red flags include:
- Receiving PPP funds while operating for less than 24 months
- Closure shortly after receiving PPP funds
- COVID-era licensing (2020-2022) combined with quick closure
- PPP loan amounts that seem disproportionate to facility capacity
