	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 1196, as amended,  Negrete McLeod  
DeSaulnier  .  Lanterman Developmental Center. 
 Child Care.  
   Existing law requires the State Department of Social Services to
establish a trustline registry for trustline providers who met
prescribed requirements.  
   Existing law defines trustline provider as a person 18 years of
age or older who provides child care, supervision, or any person
providing in-home educational or counseling services to a minor, and
who is not required to be licensed as a child day care provider.
 
   Existing law, commencing January 1, 2011, provides that a person
who provides care or supervision in an ancillary day care center, as
defined, shall be registered as a trustline provider, and
specifically defines trustline provider as also meaning a person who
provides care or child care supervision in an ancillary day care
center, other than the parent, or guardian of the child receiving the
care.  
   This bill would, instead, provide that, commencing January 1,
2011, a person 18 years of age or over who provides care or
supervision in an ancillary day care center, shall be registered as a
trustline provider. It would specifically provide that nothing in
the trustline provider provisions shall be construed to prevent a
person under 18 years of age from being employed in an ancillary day
care center.  
   Existing law vests the State Department of Developmental Services
with jurisdiction over specified state developmental centers,
including the Lanterman Developmental Center, to be used as a
developmental center for the provision of services to people with
developmental disabilities. Existing law specifies the procedure that
the department is required to use in the closure of a developmental
center.  
   This bill would require plans and other public documents, and
notice of public meetings or teleconferences, relative to the
proposed closure of the Lanterman Developmental Center, to be posted
on the department's Internet Web site, as specified. 
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes.
State-mandated local program: no.

chapter shall be construed to prevent a person under 18 years of age
from being employed in an ancillary day care center. 
   (b) This section shall become operative on January 1, 2011.

  SECTION 1.    Section 4474.9 is added to the
