Establishes a grant program for nonprofit and faith-based child care programs serving children under four years old, prioritizing those in child care.

The bill amends Tennessee Code to establish a grant program for nonprofit and faith-based child care programs serving children under four years old. At least one-third of funds appropriated to the governor's office of faith-based and community initiatives each year must be allocated as grants. To qualify, programs must be licensed, in good standing with the Department of Human Services, and operate on an income-based pricing model.
