Bill overview
This bill aims to provide subsidized child care services to certain child care workers in New Jersey. It defines a ‘qualifying child care worker’ as an educator or staff member working at least 20 hours per week at a licensed child care center or registered family child care provider. These workers would be eligible for the assistance regardless of their family’s income, and the Department of Human Services will need to confirm their employment status. The bill also seeks to maintain federal funding for the program through necessary plan amendments.
