dc.descriptionTo provide an overview of selected federal and state laws, we searched statutory codes for prohibitions against sexual offenders working or being present in child care facilities, requirements for conducting criminal-history checks, and penalties for violating these requirements. At the state level, we focused solely on statutory provisions because of their greater degree of permanence. We did not analyze state regulations or policies, or any laws, regulations, or policies at the local level. Additional requirements can be added through regulation by states or at the local level, and these may go beyond what is specified in state statute.
