Introduced by: H. Russell Potts, Jr. | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

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 center must, however, obtain the criminal background check of employees or volunteers within 21 days of employment or commencement of volunteer service, 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.
