Sec. 302.0046. NOTICE REGARDING TERMINATION OF CERTAIN CHILD-CARE SERVICES

(a) The commission shall direct each local workforce development board to notify a working poor subsidy recipient who resides in that board's local workforce development area and who receives child-care services from a child-care services program financed through state or federal funds of any termination of the subsidy for any reason other than involuntary termination resulting from the recipient's actions or failure to act.

(b) Except as otherwise provided by this subsection, the local workforce development board shall provide the notice in writing to the recipient not later than the 30th day before the scheduled date of termination of the affected child-care services subsidy. The notice must include information regarding other child-care services programs under which the recipient may be eligible for services. If providing notice on or before the deadline specified by this subsection would interfere with the ability of the local workforce development board to comply with its duties regarding the number of children to be served or would require the expenditure of funds in excess of the amount appropriated to the board, the board may provide the notice on the earliest date on which it is practicable for the board to provide notice.
