AI Summary
This bill requires child care centers in Colorado to inform parents and guardians about two key areas within their policies and procedures. First, centers must explicitly state that their staff are "mandatory reporters," meaning they are legally obligated to report any suspected child abuse or neglect to the authorities, as outlined in state law. Second, if a child care center uses video recording equipment, it must provide a written disclosure detailing the presence of this equipment and outlining the center's specific policies on its use, including how recordings are made, stored, accessed by parents or legal guardians, and eventually disposed of, along with any privacy protections in place.
