| (a) For a child currently enrolled in child care, a
Board shall ensure that child care services continue during the appeal
process until a decision is reached, if the parent requests a hearing.
(b) A Board shall ensure that child care does not continue
during the appeal process if the parent's eligibility or child's enrollment
is denied, delayed, reduced, suspended, or terminated because of:
(1) excessive absences;
(2) voluntary withdrawal from child care;
(3) change in federal or state laws or regulations
that affect the parent's eligibility;
(4) lack of funding because of increases in the number
of enrolled children in state and Board priority groups;
(5) a sanctions finding against the parent participating
in the Choices program;
(6) voluntary withdrawal of a parent from the Choices
program;
(7) nonpayment of parent share of cost;
(8) a parent's failure to report, within 10 days of
occurrence, any change in the family's circumstances that would have
rendered the family ineligible for subsidized child care;
(9) a suspension of child care services pursuant to §809.51
(related to Child Care during Temporary Interruptions in Work, Education,
or Training); or
(10) five consecutive absences and the parent has failed
to contact the child care provider or the child care contractor by
the end of the fifth authorized day.
(c) The cost of providing services during the appeal
process is subject to recovery from the parent by the Board, if the
appeal decision is rendered against the parent.
