RECOMMENDATION(S):

ACCEPT the report from the Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD) on Innovative Community Partnerships.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal Impact.

BACKGROUND:

On January 6, 2015 the Board of Supervisors referred oversight and receipt of updates on EHSD's Innovative Community Partnerships to the Family and Human Services Committee.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On November 9, 2015, EHSD presented on its partnerships that span nonprofit, faith, business, philanthropy and other governmental agencies. These collaborations give children and families access to housing, better health care and a seamless transition into Head Start so their parents can work. Partnerships like this are vital to building a vibrant, healthy and thriving Contra Costa County with opportunities for everyone. The Committee received the attached report from the Department and directed staff to transmit the report to the Board of Supervisors for their information. This report outlines some of the innovative approaches taken to accommodate community needs during the recent economic difficulties.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Board and the public will not receive current information on EHSD's Innovative Community Partnerships.
