(a) A child care facility applying for a grant shall be licensed by or registered with the department to operate a child care facility or be a qualified exempt provider, and shall have had that status as of December 31, 2022.

(b) An organization may apply for a child care grant if the organization meets the following:

(1) Be a for-profit organization incorporated under the laws of the State; or

(2) Be a nonprofit organization exempt from the federal income tax by the Internal Revenue Service; provided that a tax exempt nonprofit organization shall have a governing board whose members have no material conflict of interest and serve without compensation; and

(3) Have bylaws or policies that describe the manner in which business is conducted, prohibit nepotism, and provide for the management of potential conflict of interest situations.

(c) Notwithstanding subsections (a) or (b), a child care facility that is part of, owned by, or operated by or as a private educational institution, as defined under this chapter, is not eligible for a child care grant; provided that an organization or individual that owns or operates both a private educational institution and a child care facility may apply only if they can provide verifiable documentation that the operations and finances of the private educational institution are completely separate from the operations and finances of the child care facility so that it is clear a child care grant would not support or benefit the private educational institution in violation of article X, section 1 of the Hawaii State Constitution.
