A 3639 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires licensed child care centers to provide annual notice of emergency procedure requirements.

This bill requires licensed child care centers in New Jersey to send parents or legal guardians an annual notice detailing the center's emergency procedures for events like evacuations, lockdowns, natural disasters, or civil emergencies. The notice must be mailed via certified or receipted first-class mail to the parent's last known address and also posted on the center's website or electronic platform. It directly affects all parents/guardians of children attending licensed child care centers statewide. The law aims to ensure families are consistently informed about safety protocols without adding new safety requirements to the centers.
