Summary
Care Across Generations Act
This bill requires the Administration on Aging to award grants for long-term care facilities (including assisted living and nursing homes) to offer child care services and to coordinate multigenerational activities among long-term care and child care participants. In lieu of directly operating a child care facility, a long-term care facility may opt to contract with an existing child care facility. Grant recipients may also use the funds to build or expand a facility to accommodate child care and multigenerational events.
