S 2054 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to the fingerprinting of prospective child day care employees and sharing fingerprint results

This bill streamlines background checks for child care employees and volunteers. It requires the Department of Education to share fingerprint and criminal history results with the Office of Children and Family Services after an individual passes initial clearance under education law. It also allows the Division of Criminal Justice Services to send future criminal history updates directly to the Office of Children and Family Services. This affects prospective child care employees and volunteers who have completed initial background checks. The change improves coordination between state agencies handling these checks.
