RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to amend nonfinancial contract with 1st Northern California Credit Union, a nonprofit corporation, to increase auto loan amount from $5,000 to $6,000 for the Keeping Employment Equals Your Success Auto Loan Program, with no change in the term of July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None. This is a nonfinancial contract.

BACKGROUND:

The Employment and Human Services Department created the Keeping Employment Equals Your Success (KEYS) Auto Loan Program for California Work Opportunity and Responsibility to Kids Act (CalWORKs) participants who need a personal automobile to complete their transition to self-sufficiency. The KEYS Auto Loan Program targets CalWORKs participants and in coordination with the 1st Northern California Credit Union (Credit Union), provides automobile loans for participants who meet loan criteria. This contract outlines the Credit Union's no-fee facilitation responsibilities.  




BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
  
The KEYS Auto Loan Program is successful at helping participating CalWORKs clients remain employed and well on the road to self-sufficiency. The modifications made to the mutual indemnification clause of Contra Costa County General Conditions have been approved by Contra Costa County Risk Management. The Board approved the nonfinancial contract on April 27, 2021 (C.64). This amendment is to increase the auto loan amount from $5,000 to $6,000.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Employment and Human Services Department will be unable to facilitate the provision of an automobile loan to qualified CalWORKs participants who have been unable to obtain an automobile loan through conventional means.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

The services provided under this contract support all five of Contra Costa County’s community outcomes: (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"; and (5)"Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children and Families” by providing transportation opportunities to qualified CalWORKs participants.
