Chaptered by Secretary of State. Chapter 1002, Statutes of 2026.
Summary
The bill establishes an Emergency Child Care Bridge Program that lets counties give short‑term childcare payments or vouchers to families caring for foster children. It also requires local childcare resource centers to provide dedicated “childcare navigators” who help foster families find and keep long‑term subsidized care. The goal is to keep foster children stable with their placements while easing the childcare burden on families and the child‑welfare system.
