[CFDA #93.600]

BACKGROUND:

The Department, through the Community Services Bureau, manages a childcare operation that includes Early Head Start and State General Childcare Development programs. In order to reach a wider community, the Bureau sub-contracts with community based agencies to provide services. This contract is to further the reach of the above mentioned programs by providing 20 program slots for State General Childcare and 20 program slots for Early Head Start Program enhancement. The board approved the contract on July 10, 2018 (c.78). This amendment is to pass through the increased daily reimbursement rate (from $38.87, to $41.04) as approved by the State.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, Contractor will not be able to be reimbursed at the higher daily childcare rate.

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.
