Summary

(1) The California Child Day Care Facilities Act generally requires the State Department of Social Services to license, inspect, and regulate various types of child daycare facilities, defined to include, among others, family daycare homes and daycare centers. The act generally requires licensees and certain employees of licensees to complete specified education and training requirements, including, among others, preventive health practices and pediatric first aid. Willful or repeated violation of the act is a crime. This bill would encourage a licensee under the act and each employee of a licensee to complete trauma-informed childcare training. (2) The Child Care and Development Services Act requires the Superintendent of Public Instruction to administer childcare and development programs. The act requires the Superintendent to administer an early learning quality rating and improvement system (QRIS) block grant, allocated to local consortia, as defined, for support of local early learning quality rating and improvement systems, as specified. To be eligible for a QRIS block grant, local consortia are required to develop an action plan that includes a continuous quality improvement process that is tied to improving child outcomes. The act also establishes an Early Learning and Care Workforce Development Grants Program under the administration of the Superintendent to expand the number of qualified early learning and care professionals and increase the educational credentials of existing early learning and care professionals across the state, as provided. This bill would require, upon appropriation by the Legislature, the Superintendent to administer the Trauma-Informed Childcare Training Grants Program, which the bill would establish, to expand access to trauma-informed childcare training across the state. The bill would require a local consortium to submit an addendum to its QRIS block grant action plan to be eligible for a trauma-informed childcare training grant, as provided.
