RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and ACKNOWLEDGE that, by its terms, the contract between the County and the Regents of the University of California, Davis, pertaining to staff training on eligibility, employment services, adult services, and general leadership and initially approved by the Board on September 24, 2019 (Item C. 44), does not contain a match requirement imposed on the University, does require County revenue, includes the possibility of child welfare trainings, reflects a reduced number of anticipated trainings to be provided by the University, and reflects a payment limit of $114,750, not $117,335.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This will decrease department expenditures to $114,750, funded by 28% State, 48% Federal and 24% County revenues (CFDA #93.658, Foster Care Title IV-E; CFDA #93.778, Medical Assistance Program; CFDA #10.561, State Administrative Matching Grants for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program; CFDA #93.558, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families).

BACKGROUND:

The University of California Davis (University) provides training to Employment and Human Services Department CalWORKS Eligibility, Employment Services and Welfare-to-Work, and Adult Services staff. These mandatory trainings include classes related to eligibility, leadership, health care reform, professional development, and career growth resulting in a more informed and skilled staff.

The Regents of the University of California, Davis, require the inclusion of a mutual indemnification clause in the Agreement, which has been reviewed and approved by County’s Risk Management Department and County Counsel.

This correction eliminates any match requirement from the University and imposes it on the County. Further this correction reduces the number of trainings provided, resulting from the decreased Agreement Payment Limit.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The University will not enter into the Agreement and EHSD will be unable to provide training necessary to ensure a knowledgeable and professional staff.
