	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 1087, Walters. Organized camps.
   Existing law permits a participating program operated by a city,
county, or nonprofit organization in the After School Learning and
Safe Neighborhoods Partnership Program to operate for up to 30 hours
per week without obtaining a license or special permit otherwise
required under existing law.
   The bill would increase the authorization to 60 hours per week,
provided that an individual pupil cannot attend the program for more
than 30 hours per week.
   Existing law regulates the licensure and administration of day
care centers and family day care centers and exempts specified
recreation programs conducted for children from these regulations.
   The bill would expand the scope of this exemption to organized
camps or similar organizations.
