CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2017–2018 REGULAR SESSION

Assembly Bill

No. 3097

Introduced by Assembly Member Salas

February 16, 2018

An act to amend Section 1596.643 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to child care.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 3097, as introduced, Salas. Trustline registry.

Existing law requires the State Department of Social Services to establish a trustline registry for trustline providers who meet prescribed requirements after submitting an application to the department and undergoing a criminal background check, as specified. Existing law defines a trustline provider as a person 18 years of age or older who provides child care, supervision, or in-home educational or counseling services, and who is not required to be licensed as a child day care facility. Existing law requires the California Child Care Resource and Referral Network, among other duties, to establish and maintain a toll-free telephone line to allow parents, employment agencies, child care referral groups and registries, alternative payment programs, and others to determine if a provider is a trustline applicant or a registered trustline child care provider.

This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to a provision relating to the trustline registry.
