Summary

Child Care Provider Registry.  Creates the Virginia Child Care Provider Registry. Allows child care providers to voluntarily register with the Registry and to authorize the Registry to run criminal background checks and checks to determine whether applicants are the subject of founded complaints of child abuse or neglect and to make the results of such searches available to the public. Requires local departments to report founded complaints to the Department of Social Services and the Department to update the Registry upon receipt of such reports.
