West Virginia HB4786 clarifies that child subsidies for afterschool programs will be based on monthly enrollment rather than daily attendance.

West Virginia HB4786 amends the state's code to change how child subsidies for afterschool programs are calculated. Instead of basing subsidies on daily attendance, they will now be based on monthly enrollment, provided the child attends for at least two and a half hours at least once per month. The bill also mandates the development of an electronic system for child care providers to file attendance information for reimbursement by July 1, 2026.
