House Bill 3333 amends the Government Code to require local workforce development boards to establish graduated reimbursement rates for child care based on the Texas Workforce Commission's designated vendor program. The act also requires each board to allocate a portion of its federal Child Care Development funds that are dedicated to quality improvement activities to a competitive procurement process for a quality child-care system for children under four years of age that encourages child-care providers to meet voluntarily either the designated vendor program criteria or national accreditation criteria.
