Summary

The bill adds a new section to Michigan’s child‑care licensing law establishing a Child Care Payment Fund and a program that pays bonuses to licensed child‑care centers, group homes, or family homes. Payments are calculated on the number of children they serve, with higher rates for children age 36 months or younger. The fund is financed through state appropriations and other gifts, and the program only starts if companion SB 945 becomes law.
