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 $206,772 to a new payment limit of $1,276,227 for the provision of State Preschool, Pre-kindergarten Literacy and Early Head Start Program 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 $206,772 (resulting in a total contract payment limit of not to exceed $1,276,227). The contract is 15% funded by the Federal Administration for Children and Families and 85% by the California Department of Education.

FISCAL IMPACT: (CONT'D)

$192,000 / Federal funds / CFDA #93.600 (15%)
$1,084,227 / State funds / California Department of Education (85%)

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa County receives funds from the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) to provide Head Start and Early Head Start services to program eligible County residents. Contra Costa also receives funds from California Department of Education (CDE) to provide State Preschool and General Childcare services to program eligible County residents. The State requires an indemnification clause with County subcontractors wherein the subcontractor holds harmless the State and its officers for any losses.

In order to provide a wider distribution of services to County residents, the Department contracts with a number of community-based organizations. The Board approved the FY 2017/18 contract on July 18, 2017 (C.55). This proposed amendment is to pass through a cost of living adjustment to the program slots funded by the State.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If not approved, the County will not be able to pass through the cost of living adjustment granted by the State to it's 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.
