	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 2811, Migden.  Student financial aid:  Child Development
Teacher and Supervisor Grant Program.
   Existing law, which will become inoperative on June 30, 2002, and
will be repealed on January 1, 2003, establishes the Child
Development Teacher and Supervisor Grant Program, which is
administered by the Student Aid Commission.  Under the program,
qualified students attending California public or private 2-year or
4-year postsecondary educational institutions who intend to teach or
supervise in the field of childcare and development in a licensed
children's center may receive grants of up to $2,000 for each
academic year.
   This bill would delete the provision that renders the program
inoperative as of June 30, 2002, and repeals the program as of
January 1, 2003, thereby extending the program indefinitely.
   Existing law establishes a Child Development Teacher Loan
Assumption Program through which participants agree to teach or
supervise in the field of childcare and development in exchange for
assumption of both state and federal loans.
   This bill would repeal the Child Development Teacher Loan
Assumption Program.
   The bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an
urgency statute.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:


  SECTION 1.  Section 69625 of the Education Code is amended to read:

   69625.  (a) In order to accomplish the purposes set forth in this
article, commencing January 1, 1998, the Controller, the State
Department of Education, the State Department of Social Services, or
any other state agency receiving funds from the Child Care
Development Block Grant Act of 1990 (P.L. 97-35) shall make these
funds available to the Student Aid Commission for this program only
to the extent this program is incorporated into, and approved in, the
state plan established pursuant to subsection (a) of Section 658E of
Subchapter C as contained in Section 5082 of the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-508).
   (b) For the purpose of implementing this article, the State
Department of Education or designated state agency shall enter into
an interagency agreement with the Student Aid Commission to allocate
federal funds received annually for purposes of this program and to
include funds for the administrative costs.
   (c) On or before January 1, 1999, and each year thereafter, the
Student Aid Commission shall report to the State Department of
Education or designated state agency regarding the federal funding
level required to award 100 new grants and all of the renewal grants
annually.  The State Department of Education or designated state
agency shall take these amounts into consideration when developing
the state plan referenced in subdivision (a).  The State Department
of Education or designated state agency shall notify the Student Aid
Commission of any revision to the federal funding level as reflected
in changes to the Child Care and Development Block Grant State Plan.

   (d) This program is contingent upon the receipt of federal funds
for the childcare and development block grant for the purposes of
implementing this program.
  SEC. 2.  Section 69629 of the Education Code is repealed.
  SEC. 3.  Article 7.5 (commencing with Section 69630) of Chapter 2
of Part 42 of the Education Code is repealed.
  SEC. 4.  This act is an urgency statute necessary for the immediate
preservation of the public peace, health, or safety within the
meaning of Article IV of the Constitution and shall go into immediate
effect.  The facts constituting the necessity are:
   In order to prevent the Child Development Teacher and Supervisor
Grant Program from going out of operation as of June 30, 2002, and to
repeal the inoperative Child Development Teacher Loan Assumption
Program before the beginning of the 2002-03 academic year, it is
necessary that this act take immediate effect.
