RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment & Human Services Department Director, or designee, to execute a revenue agreement amendment with the California Department of Education to increase the payment limit by $81,587 to new limit $1,340,728 for alternative payment childcare programs operated by the county with no change to term July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No County match.


63.7% Federal / CFDA # 93.596 ($854,445)

FISCAL IMPACT: (CONT'D)

36.3% State ($486,283)
Federal funds passed through State through the Department of Education

State: CAPP 6010 / Amend 1
County: 29-212-27

BACKGROUND:

The Department was notified by California Department of Education on June 2, 2016 of the county's 2016-17 allocation for the Alternative Payment childcare services program. The Alternative Payment childcare services program provides funding for program eligible families to receive services. Priority is given to families who interface with Child Protective Services; families with children at-risk of abuse and neglect; low-income families; and families with children who have special needs. The Board approved receipt of funds on June 21, 2016 (C.52)

The State routinely adds funds to these contracts throughout the fiscal year as more funds become available. This board order is to accept additional funding for the 2016-17 year.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, County will not receive funding to operate this childcare program.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

The Employment & Human Services Department Community Services Bureau supports three of Contra Costa County’s community outcomes - Outcome 1: “Children Ready for and Succeeding in School,” Outcome 3: “Families that are Economically Self-sufficient,” and, Outcome 4: “Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing.” These outcomes are achieved by offering comprehensive services, including high quality early childhood education, nutrition, and health services to low-income children throughout Contra Costa County.
