A NEW REPORT DELIVERED TO THE LEGISLATIVE FINANCE COMMITTEE TODAY (WED) IS CRITICAL OF THE STATE OF TAXPAYER SUBSIDIZED CHILD CARE IN NEW MEXICO. COMMITTEE CO-CHAIR JOHN ARTHUR SMITH SAYS BASIC CHILD CARE DOESN'T DO MUCH TO IMPROVE STUDENT PERFORMANCE IN LATER YEARS.
OVERSIGHT OF CHILD CARE CENTERS IS ALSO BEING QUESTIONED. THE REPORT SAYS C-Y-F-D SUSPENDED THREE CHILD CARE HOMES AFTER IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT REGISTERED SEX OFFENDERS LISTED THE HOMES AS THEIR PRIMARY ADDRESS.
