SB 592 Child care; family day homes.

Introduced by: Patricia S. Ticer | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY:

Child care; family day homes. Requires the registration of all family day homes serving one through five children, exclusive of the provider's own children, nieces and nephews, and any children who reside in the home, except that registration is not required for a home where the provider operates on a nonregular basis for fewer than 20 hours a month total for all children in care. Previously, registration of family day homes serving this number of children was voluntary. The Commissioner of Social Services is still required to contract with qualified local agencies and community organizations to register family day homes pursuant to regulations promulgated by the State Board of Social Services. However, if no qualified agency or organization is available, the Commissioner must conduct the registration. Any family day home operating without being registered may be enjoined from operation.
