AI Summary

This bill aims to promote the sustainability of state-subsidized family childcare by establishing the "Family Childcare Sustainability Fund." This fund would be used to reimburse family childcare providers for any income lost due to the temporary suspension of state-subsidized childcare services during investigations or appeals, where allegations of abuse or neglect are not substantiated or are determined to be unfounded. The bill seeks to provide financial support to these providers during the appeals process to help maintain the viability of state-subsidized family childcare services.
