This bill mandates the Division of Family Development within the Department of Human Services to maintain a waiting list for income-eligible individuals who apply for the state's child care assistance program but are unable to have their applications processed due to limited funding. The division is required to implement procedures for placing applicants on this waiting list and to establish methods for notifying them when their applications can be processed, which may include posting updates on the division's website.

Additionally, the bill requires the division to publish an annual report that will be accessible on the Department of Human Services' website and submitted to the Governor and the Legislature. This report must include non-identifying aggregate data regarding the number of applications received, eligible applicants approved, individuals notified of unprocessed applications due to funding constraints, and those placed on the waiting list. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
