25 approaches to the use of existing day care services. The
26 State comprehensive day-care plan shall be made available to
27 the General Assembly following the Governor's approval of
28 the plan.
29 The plan shall include methods and procedures for the

25 employee benefits that may attract capable caregivers.

15 interagency agreements with other agencies of the State
16 providing child care services or reimbursement for such
17 services. The plans shall be annually reviewed and modified
18 for the purpose of addressing issues of applicability and
19 service system barriers.
20 (c) In cooperation with other State agencies, the
21 Department of Human Services shall develop and implement, or
22 shall continue, a resource and referral system for the State
23 of Illinois either within the Department or by contract with
24 local or regional agencies. Funding for implementation of

12 slots as well as goals and timetables to improve quality
13 and accessibility of child care.

9 the creation of more child care options for swing shift,
10 evening, and weekend workers and for working women with
11 sick children. The Department shall encourage companies

13 building in which the corporation is located so that
14 employees of all the building's tenants can benefit from
15 the facility.
16 (9) Development of strategies for subsidizing
17 students pursuing degrees in the child care field.
18 (10) Continuation and expansion of service programs

24 Chance program of job training conducted by the Department.

33 income working families, especially those who receive

2 depending on TANF in the absence of child care, the
3 Department shall complete a study using outcome-based
4 assessment measurements to analyze the various types of child
5 care needs, including but not limited to: child care homes;
6 child care facilities; before and after school care; and
7 evening and weekend care. Based upon the findings of the
8 study, the Department shall develop a plan by April 15, 1998,
9 that identifies the various types of child care needs within
10 various geographic locations. The plan shall include, but
11 not be limited to, the special needs of parents and guardians
12 in need of non-traditional child care services such as early
13 mornings, evenings, and weekends; the needs of very low
14 income families and children and how they might be better
