(a) To participate in the program, a provider must be eligible under 4 AAC 64.020 and must, on a form provided by the department, certify that the provider will

(1) participate in the day care assistance program under AS 14.38.100 and 4 AAC 65;

(2) make available 15 percent of the provider's facility spaces, or one space, whichever is greater, to families who are participating in the day care assistance program under AS 14.38.100 and 4 AAC 65 and who have an attendance authorization issued under 4 AAC 65.101;

(3) use the grant money solely for the operation of the provider's facility; and

(4) if space and staff are available, accept into care a child of a family who is participating in the day care assistance program under AS 14.38.100 and 4 AAC 65 and who has an enrollment authorization issued under 4 AAC 65.101.

(b) The number of facility spaces to be made available under (a)(2) of this section is based on the provider's average daily full-time equivalent units of care for the calendar month preceding the month in which a family requests care.
