Bill Summary

Relative to the involvement of non-custodial parents in child care. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill aims to increase the involvement of non-custodial parents in child care. When the court orders child support, it must also determine if childcare services are necessary and whether the non-custodial parent is available and capable of providing all or part of that care. If the court finds the non-custodial parent is available, capable, and willing, the court shall include provisions in the order allowing the non-custodial parent the right to provide such childcare, though they cannot enter the custodial parent's home for this purpose. A change in the non-custodial parent's availability to provide childcare would constitute a material change in circumstances for modifying the existing judgment.
