The County receives a pass-through of federal funding from the California Department of Community Services and Development. There is no county match requirement.  
  

State Contract Number: 19F-4007 / Amendment 1  




FISCAL IMPACT: (CONT'D)
County Contract Number: 39-813-48a  
[CFDA 93.569]

BACKGROUND:

The Employment and Human Services Department (Department) received notification of funding from the California Department of Community Services and Development on October 30, 2018. As the County's Community Action Agency, the Department's Community Services Bureau regularly receives Community Services Block Grant (CSBG) funding to operate self-sufficiency programs under the advisement of the County's Economic Opportunity Council. The self-sufficiency programs have the goal of ameliorating poverty in Contra Costa County through programs that address housing, economic development and food security. Examples of programs to receive funding include those that provide employment training, housing payment assistance and food distribution.  
  
The Board approved the funding allocation on November 13, 2018 (c.30) in the amount of $847,381. This allocation was an estimate provided by the state based on 2018 allocations. Subsequently, the state provided the accurate 2019 allocation as confirmed by the federal budget. On December 11, 2018 (c.27), the Board approved a correction board order to clarify the payment limit, of $850,578. This board order is to extend the term end date of the agreement from December 31, 2019 to February 29, 2020.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Department will be hampered in its ability to operate self-sufficiency programs in the community, and to establish partnerships with community based agencies and public organizations.
