The bill establishes an Interagency Task Force for Child Safety, chaired by the Assistant Secretary of the Administration for Children and Families, to develop recommendations and best practices for states conducting required criminal background checks on child care staff. The task force must consult with state agencies and submit a final report within one year of its first meeting.
