Idaho H 0958 proposes changes to income eligibility for child care subsidies, potentially affecting provider reimbursement rates and family enrollment.

It is rated Medium urgency. Center-based providers, family child-care homes, multi-site operators, faith-based programs should confirm how it applies to their specific situation before acting.
