An Act expanding access to family, friend, and neighbor-provided childcare

Summary

The bill defines "family, friend, and neighbor" (FFN) care and creates a state‑run payment structure that pays these caregivers at least the state minimum wage, using vouchers or other funding sources. It also sets up a temporary advisory committee to study FFN care, gather public input, and recommend regulatory changes. The goal is to make informal child‑care options more affordable and better integrated into the state’s child‑care system.
