RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with First Baptist Church of Pittsburg, California, to increase the payment limit by $31,861 to a new payment limit of not to exceed $395,822 to provide Early Head Start Program Enhancement and State General Childcare Development services, with no change to the term of July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This action will increase expenditures by an amount not to exceed $31,861. The increased expenditure will be covered by 70% State and 30% Federal revenues.

FISCAL IMPACT: (CONT'D)

$120,000 / Federal funds / CFDA # 93.600 Administration for Children and Families (30%)
$275,822 / State funds / California Department of Education (70%)

BACKGROUND:

The Employment and Human Services Department, through the Community Services Bureau (Bureau), manages a childcare operation that includes Early Head Start and State General Childcare Development programs. In order to reach a wider community, the Bureau sub-contracts with community based agencies to provide services. The Board approved the contract on July 18, 2017 (C.60) for 20 program slots for State General Childcare and 20 program slots for Early Head Start Program enhancement. This amendment is to pass through the cost of living adjustment to the daily rate for program slots from the California Department of Education.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, the County will not be able to pass through the State cost of living adjustment to its community based agency partner.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

The Employment and Human Services Department Community Services Bureau supports three of Contra Costa County’s community outcomes: (1) Children Ready for and Succeeding in School; (3) Families that are Economically Self-sufficient; and (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.
