Illinois General Assembly just passed an interesting measure to help provide child care service for people who work non-traditional hours, such as law enforcement and first responders.
House Bill 1571 would require the Department of Human Services to set up and administer an Off-Hours Child Care Program helping first responders and other workers with having access to off-hours, night or sleep time child care. Lawmakers said the program is subject to appropriation.
