Children: child care; licensing and regulation of camps; provide for. Creates new act.

This bill establishes the Camp Licensing Act to create a new regulatory framework for camps in Michigan that provide care and supervision to more than four campers for five or more days in a two-week period. It requires these organizations, including day, residential, and travel camps, to obtain state licenses and adhere to specific safety standards overseen by the Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs. A key provision mandates that staff and administrators undergo criminal history checks, disqualifying individuals with certain convictions related to violence, abuse, or sexual misconduct from working at these facilities. The legislation also sets up a dedicated fund to support licensing operations and includes provisions for liability immunity for licensed camps while prohibiting specific conduct regarding the reporting of incidents.
