RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE Appropriation and Revenue Adjustment No. 5008 authorizing new revenue in the amount of $4,210,022 in the Employment and Human Services Department, Community Services Bureau (0588), for the Early Head Start Child Care Partnership Grant awarded by the Administration for Children and Families for the purpose of providing 190 additional slots in the Early Head Start Child Care Partnership program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This action will provide revenue in the amount of $4,210,022 from a federal Early Head Start Child Care Partnership Grant. The revenue will be allocated to fund the provision of services to 190 additional Early Head Start Child Care Partnership slots throughout the County. There is no County match requirement. This program is 100% funded by the Federal government.

BACKGROUND:

The County's Employment and Human Services Department, Community Services Bureau, was awarded a new grant for the Early Head Start Child Care Partnership to provide Early Head Start childcare services to 190 needy children 0-3 years of age. The total grant award amounted to $4,546,841 with a project period of March 1, 2017 through August 31, 2021. Federal laws provide for the continuation of the funding level awarded to grantees after the end of the initial project period. This new federal program required the collaboration or partnership among childcare providers funded by the California Department of Education and those funded by Administration for Children and Families.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Appropriations and estimated revenues will not be properly reflected in the FY 17/18 budget.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Community Services Bureau supports all five outcomes established by the Children's Report Card: 1)Children Ready for and Succeeding in School; (2) Children and Youth Healthy and Preparing for Productive Adulthood; (3) Families that are Economically Self Sufficient; (4) Families that are Safe, Stable and Nurturing; 5) Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families. The requested action will better support all five outcomes.
