Administration for Children and Families

BACKGROUND:

The Department's Community Services Bureau (CSB) operates childcare centers throughout the county to provide quality early care and education to program eligible families. The Head Start and Early Head Start programs, serving children ages 0 to 5 years, operates in an environment wherein the families face specific environmental challenges that require the supervisors of the childcare programs to have a set of abilities well suited to address the unique needs. The Bureau has identified a specific type of professional development training, Reflective Supervision, that will assist the childcare program supervisors to better serve the population.

UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital has a training unit in the Early Intervention Program services, that are a good match for CSB. The department would like to establish a contract with UCSF Benioff to provide a 3-day training services to well equip the childcare program services in the practice of Reflective Supervision.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, training will not be provided to staff.
