Kairo Act of 2025

HR 2425, the Kairo Act of 2025, requires child care providers receiving federal funding (like Child Care Development Block Grants or Head Start) to create a "parent's bill of rights" document. This document must include specific information: contact details for child abuse hotlines, access to facility inspection reports, procedures for reviewing a child’s records, and policies on accessing video recordings of incidents involving the child. Providers must give parents a written copy of these rights within 45 days of the bill’s effective date or the child’s first day in care. The law applies to center-based, family, and religious child care providers, ensuring parents have clear access to facility compliance information and records.
