This bill creates the Home Works Program, which aims to address the needs of children aged 5 to 14 residing in the Emergency Assistance program. The program allows out-of-school time and summer programs to apply for funded slots to provide programming and transportation for eligible participants. The slots will cover at least 75% of the local market value for these services, and programs must meet certain requirements, such as conducting criminal background checks on staff. The Department of Early Education and Care will oversee the program, including maintaining a waitlist of eligible participants and promulgating regulations within six months of the bill's passage.
