Establishes Employer-Based Child Care Assistance Partnership Program in DCF.

S 716 establishes a voluntary program through New Jersey's Department of Children and Families (DCF) to help working parents access affordable child care. It allows employers to make direct payments to licensed child care providers for their employees' eligible costs, with the state providing matching funds to reduce out-of-pocket expenses for families. The program requires child care providers to have at least a "Grow NJ Kids" rating of three stars and targets families earning at or below the state median household income. It directly affects employers (any business in NJ), working parents with children, and licensed child care providers meeting quality standards.
