Summary

The bill amends the Welfare and Institutions Code to define new terms, allow alternative payment arrangements, and let families stay enrolled for up to 24 months without recertifying income. It also lets a single parent self‑certify a second parent’s status and requires the Department of Social Services to issue guidance and adopt regulations by mid‑2026. The changes aim to keep vulnerable families in childcare programs during work, training, or housing transitions.
