Purpose

A program that is exempt from HHSC regulation or is otherwise not subject to HHSC regulation may operate legally without receiving a permit (license, certification, registration or listing) from Child Care Regulation (CCR); or complying with the statutes, rules, or standards that govern regulated child care in Texas. Such a program does not have to meet the requirements of a specific exemption under Texas Human Resources Code (HRC) §42.041(b).

 

Procedure

When to Prepare

CCR uses this form to determine whether a program is exempt from HHSC regulation based on an exemption for an educational facility under Title 26 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) §745.119.

For further clarification, review 26 TAC Chapter 745 (Licensing), Subchapter C, Operations That Are Exempt From Regulation.
