Changes in state regulations
Licensing Regulations:
State Child Care Licensing Agencies may have changed their child care licensing regulations to assist child care programs and family child care providers with enrolling and serving children from evacuated families. NCCIC has a directory of State licensing agencies in the State Contacts section of its Web site at http://nccic.acf.hhs.gov/statedata/dirs/display.cfm?title=licensing.
The National Resource Center for Health and Safety in Child Care has the full text of all State child care licensing regulations on its Web site at http://nrc.uchsc.edu/STATES/states.htm.
Prekindergarten Program Requirements:
To assist prekindergarten programs with enrolling and serving children from evacuated families, some States may change their requirements for prekindergarten programs. The information about licensing regulations may apply to prekindergarten programs, but there may also be changes made by the State education agency. The Council for Chief State School Officers' Web site has links to each State's education agency at http://www.ccsso.org/chief_state_school_officers/state_education_agencies/index.cfm.
