SB 141 Child day centers operated by religious institutions.
Introduced by: Stephen H. Martin | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles | history
SUMMARY AS PASSED:
Child day centers operated by religious institutions; criminal background checks. Permits child day centers operated by religious institutions that are exempt from licensure to allow employees or volunteers to work pending the outcome of their criminal background checks. The centers must, however, obtain the criminal background check on employees or volunteers within 21 days of employment or commencement of volunteer service, a practice which is consistent with the requirement for licensed child day centers. The bill also clarifies that the criminal background check for other persons who are not employees or volunteers is confined to only those who are expected to be alone with one or more children in the child day center.
