RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with Martinez Early Childhood Center, to increase the payment limit by $30,150 to a new limit not to exceed $278,150 to provide Early Head Start and Head Start program enhancement services with no changes to term July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract is fully funded by a Federal grant from the Administration for Children and Families (Head Start Program) (CFDA 93.708). A County match is not required. The contract number is 38-483-18.

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa County receives funds from the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) to provide Head Start program services to eligible County residents. The Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD), in turn, contracts with a number of community-based organizations to provide a wider distribution of services. This contract is to provide Early Head Start and Head Start program enhancement services to 63 children served by this partnership. The Board approved the contract on July 10, 2018 (c.51). This amendment is to add facility improvement funds and to change the funding source for childcare costs from Early Head Start Childcare Partnership funds to Early Head Start program enhancement funds.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, EHSD will not be able to adjust childcare slots to better meet fiscal and program re-structure needs.

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.
