Bill > HR6045

This bill, known as the "Convening Operations Assistance for Childcare Heroes Act" or "COACH Act", requires the Small Business Administration (SBA) Administrator to publish and periodically update a comprehensive resource guide for small businesses operating as child care providers. The guide must be published within one year of enactment and updated at least every five years, and will provide guidance on multiple aspects of running a child care business, including operations, finances, legal compliance, training, safety, and quality standards. Before creating the guide, the SBA Administrator must consult with the Department of Health and Human Services, state lead agencies for child care, local child care resource organizations, and other relevant entities. The resource guide will be published in English and the 10 most commonly spoken languages in the United States, with translations made publicly available online. Additionally, the guide will be distributed through various SBA offices and partner organizations like women's business centers, small business development centers, the Service Corps of Retired Executives, and Veteran Business Outreach Centers, with a focus on helping child care providers with limited administrative capacity access critical business resources.
