Besides these, there must be an official statement of the principles behind the operation of Illinois day care centers, as well as the list of all its executives, staff, committees and their members that oversee the running of the establishment. Financial capability must also be demonstrated in a clear budget showing both projected income as well as possible expenses in the next year.
