Bill overview
This bill changes how West Virginia’s childcare subsidies are calculated. Currently, families receive subsidies based on the number of days their children attend childcare. This bill would require subsidies to be based on the number of months a child is enrolled in childcare, providing more consistent support for families. The bill clarifies which types of childcare programs are exempt from licensing requirements, including certain summer camps and family care arrangements. It also mandates that childcare facilities have written evacuation plans to ensure the safety of children in emergencies.
