Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

The After Hours Child Care Act establishes a federal pilot grant program to expand child care services for parents working nontraditional hours (evenings, nights, weekends, or on short notice). The bill authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services to award competitive grants of $25,000 to $500,000 over five years to eligible child care providers and partnerships to increase capacity, establish workplace child care programs, or create new services. Grant funds may be used for staffing, facility improvements, curriculum development, quality improvements, and training, with a 25 percent non-federal cost-share requirement.
