The program is operated by the Employment and Human Services Department, Community Services Bureau.

The Board of Supervisors approved the Continued Funding Application for fiscal year 2022-2023 to continue receiving funding for General Child Care and Development Program on January 18, 2022 (C.26). The Board approved the renewal agreement from California Department of Social Services in the amount of $7,522,598 on September 13, 2022 (C.48).

This Board Order is to accept additional funds from CDSS in the amount of $46,170 for a new total funding limit of $7,568,768.
