Background:
The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services (ODJFS) had
promulgated rules for child care resource and referral agencies in Chapter
5101:2-15 of the Administrative Code.
Child care resource and referral agencies provide early care and
education and support to providers, parents, and the community.
New Policy:
As a result of Amended Substitute House Bill 110 of the 134th
Ohio General Assembly which removed the requirement for ODJFS to have rules for
the resource and referral agencies. The rules contained in Chapter 5101:2-15
and in eManuals will be removed effective December 2, 2021.
Rescinded Rules:
5101:2-15-01 "Service Delivery Areas and Funding Formula
for the Provision of Child Care Resource and Referral Services"
5101:2-15-02 "Child Care Resource and Referral Service
Organization Qualifications, Services, and Technical Assistance"
